This one-hour online training will cover how to import publication data from Web of Science into biblioshiny to quickly create dynamic visualizations related to author, country, and topic/keyword trends for a collection of publications. This training will introduce biblioshiny, a web interface for the R programming language package bibliometrix that can be used by non-coders to create analytics and plots for a collection of publications.
By the end of this training, attendees will be able to:
- Use bibliometrix and biblioshiny in RStudio
- Import publication data from Web of Science Core Collection to biblioshiny
- Create five visualizations related to author, country, and topic/keyword trends for a set of publications in biblioshiny
- Export a report with the visualizations and data tables from biblioshiny to Excel
Attendees are expected to have a basic understanding of R and RStudio. To proceed, attendees should have done the following:
- Installed R and RStudio
- Taken Introduction to R and RStudio training. If not, there are videos that cover the basics of R and managing projects on the NIH Data Services: On Demand Content YouTube Playlist.
Note on Technology
Registrants will receive an email with information and instructions to install and verify access to R and RStudio before the training.
