Looking for information on RCF-funded research and researchers?
Research.fi is a service offered by the Finnish Ministry of Education, Science and Culture that collects and shares information on research and researchers in Finland. The service contains information on scientific publications by Finnish organisations, projects funded by public and private research funders, researchers in Finland and their research activities, and statistical information on research personnel, research funding and the impact of scientific publications.
The service is based on a national research information hub, which pools data maintained by universities, universities of applied sciences, research institutes and research funders in their own services.
