 Join the Centre for Research and Innovation Support (CRIS) for a webinar on how University of Toronto faculty and academic researchers can use Overton to demonstrate the real-world impact of their research.

Overton is the world’s largest searchable policy database, offering a powerful tool to track the impact of academic research on a wide range of policy documents, including government publications, policy briefs, clinical guidelines, and more. Learn how to track and analyze the influence of your academic work on policy documents – an essential skill for securing funding, supporting promotions and tenure applications, and advancing scholarly work.
