“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 100M documents from 1M researchers, 80K collaborative groups.
• Mendeley Desktop: A bit of software that organizes PDFs and helps you write papers.
