Connecting researchers with 
information - and unlocking it! 
Mendeley and Open Science 
William Gunn 
Head of Academic Outreach 
william.gunn@mendeley.com
“The state of knowledge of the human 
race is sitting in the scientists’ 
computers, and is currently not shared 
[…] We need to get it unlocked so we can 
tackle those huge problems.”
Connecting Scholars in the cloud 
• Research is a social activity, but the tools 
and the data aren’t. 
• Databases have incomplete metadata, 
incompatible licenses prevent remixing 
and sharing necessary for new insights. 
• Capture the latent info in their process!
What is Mendeley? 
• Mendeley Web: A research catalog of 80M 
documents from 1M researchers, 80K 
collaborative groups. 
• Mendeley Desktop: A bit of software that 
organizes PDFs and helps you write 
papers.
Mendeley makes science more collaborative and 
transparent: 
...and aggregates research 
data in the cloud 
Install 
Mendeley Desktop 
Mendeley extracts 
research data…
Based in London & New York Mendeley are researchers, 
graduates and software developers from... 
...backed by co-founders and 
former executives of: 
Supported by:
Aggregate data 
enables social 
discovery in 
real time
Article statistics 
provide specific 
readership 
information & 
recommend

Apps are being 
developed that mash up 
Mendeley data with: 
Chemical 
compounds 
Locations 
Alzheimer’s research 
Grant funding

Connecting Researchers with Information - and Unlocking It!

  • 1. Connecting researchers with information - and unlocking it! Mendeley and Open Science William Gunn Head of Academic Outreach william.gunn@mendeley.com
  • 2. “The state of knowledge of the human race is sitting in the scientists’ computers, and is currently not shared […] We need to get it unlocked so we can tackle those huge problems.”
  • 3. Connecting Scholars in the cloud • Research is a social activity, but the tools and the data aren’t. • Databases have incomplete metadata, incompatible licenses prevent remixing and sharing necessary for new insights. • Capture the latent info in their process!
  • 4. What is Mendeley? • Mendeley Web: A research catalog of 80M documents from 1M researchers, 80K collaborative groups. • Mendeley Desktop: A bit of software that organizes PDFs and helps you write papers.
  • 5. Mendeley makes science more collaborative and transparent: ...and aggregates research data in the cloud Install Mendeley Desktop Mendeley extracts research data…
  • 6. Based in London & New York Mendeley are researchers, graduates and software developers from... ...backed by co-founders and former executives of: Supported by:
  • 7. Aggregate data enables social discovery in real time
  • 8. Article statistics provide specific readership information & recommend related papers
  • 9. Apps are being developed that mash up Mendeley data with: Chemical compounds Locations Alzheimer’s research Grant funding Twitter streams Get Started @ dev.mendeley.com
