Given the current situation, a likely\u00a0scenario for the near future of scientific publishing\u00a0is the coexistence of classical publications and Data Services for scientific data. Furthermore, the need for the identification of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.enago.com\/see-the-future\/conference-2021\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">future research trends<\/a> will enable researchers to work toward a mutual goal of research and scientific growth across disciplines.<\/p>\n<p>No one can predict the future! However, it\u2019s clear that there are certain themes, or drivers, that will bring about change. Furthermore, much will depend on how they combine and the speed at which they develop. To acknowledge the profound changes that the research ecosystem is undergoing, Enago brings its virtual conference that highlights the future trends of research and publishing, and the aspects that will augment it. Being held on November 18, 2021,\u00a0See the Future\u00a0is a one of a kind researcher conference, with yesteryear\u2019s Nobel Laureate Professor Randy Schekman\u00a0as the keynote speaker. The second edition of this intellectually stimulating\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.enago.com\/see-the-future\/conference-2021\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">virtual conference<\/a>\u00a0aims to focus on the vital aspects of research publication with its exclusively curated sessions by eminent researchers across the globe.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_74 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.enago.com\/academy\/see-the-future-the-world-of-research-in-coming-years-2\/#Future_of_Research_Will_it_Surge_or_Sink\" >Future of Research: Will it Surge or Sink?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.enago.com\/academy\/see-the-future-the-world-of-research-in-coming-years-2\/#See_the_Future_of_Research_A_Calculated_Risk\" >See the Future of Research: A Calculated Risk<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/www.enago.com\/academy\/see-the-future-the-world-of-research-in-coming-years-2\/#The_Future_Directions_of_Research\" >The Future Directions of Research!<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Future_of_Research_Will_it_Surge_or_Sink\"><\/span>Future of Research: Will it Surge or Sink?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Although technologies, policies, and the international environment are changing the global research landscape, several researchers strive to produce extensively diverse forms of outputs in the future. Right from journal articles to conference contributions, researchers\u2019 determination to add to the growth of scientific literature continues to be a dominant source of knowledge output. Furthermore, despite the advent of pre-prints and rapid publication practices in the name of competitiveness, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.enago.com\/publication-support-services\/peer-review-process\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"115\" title=\"Peer Review\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">peer review<\/a> is certain to remain the principal method for research assessment in the publishing industry.<\/p>\n<p>As new technologies approach scientific research and publication industry, it supports its implementation in the science communications landscape. Furthermore, the unrestricted sharing of research outputs is increasingly seen as critical for scientific progress. A researcher\u2019s ability to access and build upon pertinent knowledge has evolved; right from elementary access to published manuscripts and research reports. Their capability of accessing different outputs produced throughout the research lifecycle. This includes addition of digital data files to the scientific literature for advances in the future.<\/p>\n<p>Despite these profuse transformations, there are several factors hindering the growth of research. Beginning with the advances in technology to defining research funding pressures, the uncertainty in research support is a major setback. Nevertheless, the political uncertainty and population shifts are secondary factors that obstruct a paradigm shifting transformation in research and publication.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"See_the_Future_of_Research_A_Calculated_Risk\"><\/span>See the Future of Research: A Calculated Risk<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>While the above mentioned factors can\u2019t be denied, they are negotiable for the growth that we speak of. Conduction of research, its documentation, and then publication does not just add to the knowledge. It also has an impact on its socio-economic stature. Thus, rather than focusing on the research topics, we must focus on how the research will be created and exchanged.<\/p>\n<p>According to a\u00a0study conducted by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.elsevier.com\/connect\/elsevier-research-futures-report\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Elsevier<\/a>, they determined three factors that have the potential to create a monumental change in the future of research:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Brave Open World:<\/strong>\u00a0The rise of open science<\/li>\n<li><strong>Tech Titans<\/strong>: Growing influence of technology<\/li>\n<li><strong>East Ascendance:<\/strong>\u00a0Impactful role of the East, especially China.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Future_Directions_of_Research\"><\/span>The Future Directions of Research!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>As the future research directions continue to improve in software and algorithms, there are some challenging problems that require solutions. One should determine the most effective features and methods that have robust and indispensable properties. Furthermore, future directions in research should investigate the potential use and effect of computer technology.<\/p>\n<p>Another most important future direction\u00a0largely depends on organizational needs and objectives, vulnerabilities, technological innovations, etc. All these aspects need to be analyzed and evaluated for an exponential growth of research in future.<\/p>\n<p>Reflecting on the topic, what have we understood? While there\u2019s scope of research in future, the best way to influence it is by creating and evaluating it. Let us know how you envision the research landscape in over 10 years from now?
