Presented by Overton's Morgan Adle, join us for this Research Spotlight on using Overton Index to identify policy impact.

Whether you're interested in your own research outputs or the impact of a research group or institution, this session will show you how to find and monitor policy citations efficiently.

In this one-hour session, you will learn how to:

  • find policy citations to your own research using the people search and DOI searches
  • set up and manage your Overton profile
  • save searches to monitor policy impact over time
  • assess the policy impact of an individual, research group, centre or institution

You will also have the opportunity to ask questions during the Q&A.
