How we support researchers

·         To maximise the impact of your research RADAR supports researchers to organise, publish, cite, find, share and securely archive their research data.

 

·         With RADAR you can link your research data to your publications. Using a secure URL, you can share your research data with an editor or reviewer responsible for a corresponding manuscript submission before publication.
