Digital Science and Silverchair Partner to Bring Researcher Identity and Integrity Screening into Editorial Workflows

Built on Digital Science's Dimensions - the world's largest interconnected global research database - Dimensions Author Check provides unmatched transparency into authors', editors', and reviewers' publishing and collaboration histories.

With more than 9,000 journal sites using ScholarOne, publishers globally will benefit from Author Check's reliable, concise, structured insights, enabling them to quickly spot unusual activities, such as retractions, expressions of concern, or atypical collaboration patterns.

"We're delighted to add Author Check as a Silverchair Universe partner to the direct benefit of ScholarOne users," said Hannah Heckner Swain, VP of Strategic Partnerships at Silverchair. "By connecting best-in-class services to our products, we give publishers the flexibility of choosing the services that best fit their needs."

Dr Leslie McIntosh, VP of Research Integrity & Security at Digital Science, said: "ScholarOne is used by millions of researchers worldwide, which makes it an ideal platform to integrate the Dimensions Author Check API.

"Supporting the integrity of the scholarly record is vital for upholding trust and transparency in research itself, where publishers play a critical role. Because the Author Check API can be used at scale, ScholarOne will now offer maximum benefit to the academic publishing community."
