Publications are missing from my institution/department
At the moment, publications on ResearchGate are only attributed to one institution/department. As publications are carried out at a particular institution/department, they are only included in the publication count for the institution/department that we identify using the publication's metadata, rather than the author's current affiliation. However, as publication reads are based on individual members, these are automatically included in your institution and department stats.
We have not yet finished extracting data and assigning publications, and we are constantly working on optimizing our algorithms, so if your publication should be affiliated to your department but is not yet, this will eventually happen automatically if the affiliation is mentioned in the publication's metadata or
full-text. We advise you to upload the publication’s full-text
if the affiliation is present there. We are, unfortunately, unable at the time to edit the affiliation part of the metadata ourselves.
Thank you for your patience.
