ResearchGate | Find and Share Research

Our existence is to empower researchers.

We launched ResearchGate in 2008 to address the issues we see in scientific creation and sharing. Our mission is to connect the scientific community and make research open to everyone. The 20 million researchers in our community come from different departments in over 190 countries and use ResearchGate to connect, collaborate, and share their work.

We put researchers first.

ResearchGate is suitable for you: scientists, clinical doctors, students, engineers, public health workers, laboratory technicians, computer scientists.

The work you do is very important. But too often, you are overloaded with work, with low compensation, low job security, and high business pressure. Firstly, becoming a researcher is not an easy task, and obtaining information often relies on privilege. Our goal is to make your life easier.

We provide you with a home - a place to share your work and connect with global peers, crossing the boundaries and islands of science. We want you to have the ability to do the best work, advance your field, and create a better world for everyone.

For those with a strong thirst for knowledge, a pursuit of truth, geeks, and creators, our members provide you with a treasure trove of knowledge in different fields such as materials science, agriculture, human health, and quantum physics.

In order to make the world a better place, science must self improve.

We believe that science is the most important tool for humanity. It is the reason why we have made a huge leap in understanding the universe, and also the best way for us to meet future challenges.

Nevertheless, it is not without problems. The system that provides power for research is too slow to cope with the global challenges of our time. The complex funding process and patent benefits hinder the development of open science.

This is where we can make a difference. We strive to provide researchers with opportunities for mutual communication and the resources they need for growth. We strive to make science faster, fairer, and easier to discover and access.

No one can tackle these challenges alone - we recognize the need to collaborate with others in this process. We are committed to developing together with the scientific community, challenging the current state of the scientific ecosystem, and always putting researchers first.

We dream of a society centered around science.

We dream of a world where scientists can focus on their thirst for knowledge, confident that their work will be highly valued and appropriately funded. The desire to do good and the desire for economic security are not mutually exclusive. Here, as an early career researcher, terms such as "fatigue," "boys' club," or "publication or extinction" are not associated with people

We dream of a world where leaders seek the help of scientific advisors before corporate donors. The federal government's research budget far exceeds military spending.

We dream of sustainable ecosystems, universal human rights, longer and healthier lives. We believe that without science, all of this is impossible, but all of this is possible.
