So in the second of our Cool Tools part of the show we thought we'd bring to the party Research Gate's newest weapon - The Journal Finder.
For those of you unaware what Research Gate is, it is a scientific network that connects researchers. It also allows you to find research partners, collaborate with scientists and explore journal articles.
According to Research Gate there are more than 20,000 Journals in print and as we all know it is sometimes it is hard to find the best fit for your paper. Their Journal Finder will help you discover which journals are most relevant to your research.
Here's how it works: Copy and Paste your article's abstract into their semantic search algorithm, and it will identify all of the relevant journals.
In addition, we will share all publication restrictions with you, as well as more information (e.g. impact factor) about the journal.

thanks for sharing. A great tool!
Looking forward to seeing the next tools, which researchgate has in the pipeline
Just tried to use this and can't find it! Researchgate has completely changed and can't seem to find a way of entering an abstract any more. Is there another (similarly convenient) way of finding journals?
The Journal Finder has always been tucked away somewhere - it's a great tool and they don't seem keen on advertising it.
It's here:
