This is helpful to researchers because it allows them to analyze the citation context of a paper to determine if the citation supports or disputes the cited claim. The resource allow researchers  to more effectively understand and evaluate articles and sources, as well as create dashboards to aggregate information and search for articles by funding agency, research organization or journal.
The trial for Scite will end on Dec. 14th, 2023.  Please take the time to let us know your thoughts on this resource by taking this short survey.
