The Knowledge Media institute, The Open University, UK is currently 
offering fully-funded PhD studentships. The following topic might be of 
a particular interest to the members of this list:

- /Web-scale research analytics for identifying high performance and 
trends:/ /data-driven approaches to scientometrics. /
It is expected the research will use a combination of bibliometric, 
altmetric and article full-text data to develop new research metrics. 
The research will analyse how predictive they are with respect to 
peer-review judgements. A very large dataset of publication full-texts 
(millions of articles from all disciplines), a large citation network 
(500M+ citation links) and altmetric indicators, and peer-review 
judgements from across disciplines is readily available.

Deadline for applications: 20th June 2016.

The offered stipend of 14,057 GBP per annum plus waived student fees is 
offered for 3 years. Prospective applicants should contact me and Prof 
Zdrahal directly atpetr.knoth at open.ac.uk 
<mailto:petr.knoth at open.ac.uk> and zdenek.zdrahal at open.ac.uk 
<mailto:zdenek.zdrahal at open.ac.uk> prior to application.

Best wishes,
