Karolinska Institutet: Transforming Research Visibility and Accessibility

Karolinska Institutet (KI), a globally recognized medical university, has transformed how it manages and shares research information by adopting an integrated solution powered by Symplectic Elements and Figshare. These tools have enabled KI to streamline administrative processes, improve research visibility, and advance open science initiatives in alignment with its Strategy 2030 vision.

A Centralized Research Ecosystem: KI has unified research information across departments, leveraging Symplectic Elements (known internally as KI RIMS) for streamlined data management and Figshare for open access archiving.
Boosting Research Visibility: By integrating with KI’s public website, researcher profiles and group pages are dynamically updated, allowing external collaborators, funding bodies, and the global research community to easily discover expertise and ongoing projects.
Supporting Open Science Initiatives: KI Open Archive (powered by Figshare) simplifies the process of sharing research outputs, ensuring compliance with open access policies while supporting the FAIR principles of data management.
Reducing Administrative Overhead: Automated data integrations pull in information from HR systems, publication databases, and grant records, significantly minimizing the manual workload for researchers and administrative staff.
