Last week, we talked about the new launches at R Discovery in July 2021 that will help you save time and enjoy reading even more.
A CACTUS solution under the Researcher.Life ecosystem, R Discovery leverages AI to personalize your literature search by curating research papers from your topics of interest. To set up your personalized feed, all you need to do is spend a minute to select your topics. This intuitive tool will then identify the top three research papers for you to read every day.
In this post, we talk about the improvements in August 2021 within R Discovery.
See research that’s just out first
Now you can see the latest research from your topics, published in the last 0-6 months, at the top of your feed.
Papers older than 6 months appear in the Relevant Reads section, just below your Top Reads.
Get full text reads on Mondays
We understand how disappointing it can be when you are unable to access the full text of a paper you want to read. So every Monday, we sort through our database to bring you a curated list of 5 papers from your topics that have full text access. You can save them to read later, one for each day of your work-week. Look out for our Monday evening notifications bearing full text papers for you.
If you don’t receive our Monday notification every week, try adding more topics so we can find more full text matches for you. At the same time, make sure your app is updated to the latest version from Google Play or the App Store.
Sign in to the app with just one tap
We’ve launched another time-saving feature: One-tap sign-in (or sign-up). If you use the same email address to sign in to R Discovery and to your Google account, you can sign in to the R Discovery app with just one tap. This feature is available on both Android and iOS.
A note of caution: If you enter a different email address, you may end up with two R Discovery accounts.
