Researcher.Life, a brand under Cactus Communications, has partnered with Underline Science to add top-tier scientific video streaming content to the R Discovery academic research library. Through this collaboration, Underline Science, an on-demand video repository platform for global scientific and citable lectures, research, and conferences, will integrate its content with the R Discovery’s library, making its videos accessible to the literature search and reading app’s more than 2.25 million users.
The partnership is another step in Researcher.Life’s mission to make research content more accessible to a wider research community across the world. Going forward, R Discovery users will gain access to an extensive digital video library covering diverse areas, including science, medicine, academia, and other professional fields.
Commenting on the partnership, Abhishek Goel, CEO & Co-founder, CACTUS, said, “Recent research suggests that viewers remember a significantly larger portion of a message when delivered by video, rather than text. So, it is imperative that we have more video-based content in such an important area, i.e., research. Our collaboration with Underline Science is a stepping stone in creating new dimensions of content. We believe this will enhance R Discovery’s position as a truly one-stop solution for all research content.”
R Discovery houses over 100 million research papers from more than 32,000 journals in its rich and ever-expanding research library. The smart app gives users personalized research reading recommendations from over 9.5 million research topics across all major subject areas, including medicine, biology, philosophy, political science, environmental science, social sciences, and psychology. R Discovery is also the largest open-access research repository in the world with more than 40 million open-access articles, including 2 million preprints. It also allows users to access and read pay-walled journal articles on the app using one’s university credentials.
Alex Lazinica, CEO, Underline Science, commented on the partnership, saying, “At Underline, our mission is to digitize scientific knowledge through videos, making it a globally accessible and a useful content source. Currently, the 40,000+ videos available in the Underline Digital Video Library are solid proof that Underline Science offers a truly academic viewing experience.
