A demonstration of multi-institutional search

A group of eight top research institutions dedicated to facilitating global research efforts recognize the challenges faced by researchers in uncovering parallel and related efforts, and have decided to join forces in standardizing the way institutional data gets published. Each institution uses the VIVO software to manage and publish up-to-date information about researchers and their activities.

This website provides a working example of how a multi-institutional search functions, allowing you to search across all seven partner institutions and across all disciplines to find people and information that could dramatically impact your work.
