In line with its institutional mission, FBK has progressively developed tools and methodologies over the years to monitor and analyze the scientific output of its research staff, increasingly incorporating the insights gained from these analyses into its decision-making processes.
In particular, the Research Assessment is responsible for collecting and analyzing scientific publications and the related bibliometric indicators, and it takes part in all internal processes in which scientific productivity is a relevant factor.

FBK's scientific production is collected in the IRIS database, developed by CINECA based on the open source platform Dspace and integrated with the ministerial database LoginMIUR. In order to facilitate the dissemination of research results, IRIS has a public portal that displays the metadata of research products and gives the possibility to display the full text of open access publications, consistent with publishers' policies and intellectual property rights.
Authors are responsible for entering research product records into IRIS; the Research Assessment unit is responsible for validating the metadata and attachments entered, thus ensuring the quality and accuracy of the information displayed in the portal. We urge all authors to enter their publications into the IRIS database in a timely manner so that FBK will always have up-to-date representations while ensuring maximum circulation of research results.
