What does maximizing the visibility of your research mean?

Maximising the visibility of your research entails the promotion and dissemination of your research in ways that have the highest exposure and/or impact. It includes making your work easier to discover, having it available on a range of platforms, and using social media tools to promote your work.

  • Increasing your citation counts and improving your H-index
  • Generating greater opportunities for sharing and collaboration with others
