The Weill Cornell Library offers services to help you track the impact of and increase the visibility of your scholarly output. Through the use of the VIVO database, members of our team can generate publication and citation reports for grant renewals, annual reports, tenure considerations, recruiting activities, and and any other project requiring detailed publication tracking. If you are interested, please send a request to publications@med.cornell.edu with the details of your project.
ReCiter
What is ReCiter?
ReCiter is Weill Cornell Medical College's authoritative source for publications in PubMed authored by Weill Cornell Medicine researchers and students.
What can ReCiter do for me?
ReCiter accurately identifies articles, including those at previous affiliations, by a given person. It does this by leveraging institutionally maintained identity data (e.g., departments, relationships, email addresses, year of degree, etc.) With the more complete and efficient searches that result from combining these types of data, you can save time and your institution can be more productive. If you run ReCiter daily, you can ensure that the desired users are the first to learn when a new publication has appeared in PubMed.
Who is in ReCiter?
ReCiter includes anyone with an academic appointment from the College going back to 2005. It includes all doctoral students including alumni, NYP residents, and members of the CTSC. In all, over 20,000 users have a profile in ReCiter.
VIVO
What is VIVO?
At Weill Cornell Medical College, VIVO acts as the researcher profile system. Invented at Cornell University, VIVO is a NIH-funded research networking tool. Weill Cornell was one of the original implementation sites. For more information about the software, see vivoweb.org.
What can VIVO do for me?
The primary goal is to offer faculty and researchers a polished and accurate web presence. To that end, we bring in data only from authoritative sources. In particular, we have tried to ensure that your list of authored journal articles, including those from previous affiliations, is accurate and complete.
Having accurate metadata about you and your work allows you: to attract funders, collaboration opportunities, and receive proper credit for your activities.
Who is in VIVO?
At present, VIVO includes all faculty with a Weill Cornell appointment as well as postdoctoral associates or fellows with a primary affiliation of Weill Cornell. We also plan to create profiles for graduate students. Note that all users in VIVO must already have Center-Wide Identifiers (CWIDs).
Custom Reports
The Library offer customized reports to the WCM community. Please visit the wiki page or contact publications@med.cornell.edu for more information.
API Web Service
This service allows those who need to repurpose publication metadata (e.g., those who maintain a departmental or lab website) to get a feed of data. It’s currently available to all WCM users on the campus network.
