Research@WUR recently reached a milestone. WUR has now more than 285,000 publications in its repository. This covers a variety of research outputs, including articles, conference papers, books, chapters, and dissertations. Over 115,000 items are Open Access and completely free and available to anyone to read. That’s a great accomplishment.

The 285,000th publication

The honour of the 285,000th publication included in Research@WUR goes to the Open Access report by Rick van Emous and  Izak Vermeij: 'Analyse risicofactoren welzijn en gezondheid vleeskuikens'. In addition to research output items, Research@WUR now contains 1900 datasets, 12,700 press clippings and 26,000 activities (lectures, workshops) by WUR staff.

2021 entries

The deadline for 2021 entries is January 31, 2022. Publications and other research output need to be submitted by Monday, January 31, to be included in the 2021 reports. No worries, as a researcher you don't need to register your own publications in Pure. Within the organisation, each division or chair group has trained staff who register their group’s publications. See this list of Pure importers per organisational unit on intranet. You are kindly requested to check your research output for 2021 in Research@WUR and contact your Pure contactperson for any omissions.
