ScholarOne Abstracts Users Now Capture and Share Meeting Content with Innovative Tool

PHILADELPHIA and LONDON, April 28 -- Thomson Reuters today announced a new partnership between ScholarOne(TM), its industry-leading peer review workflow management solution, and SciVee, a leading provider of rich media solutions to the scientific, technical and medical market.  This partnership will give users of ScholarOne Abstracts (formerly Abstract Central) the ability to capture live meeting content and share this content post-event using one source.

"This partnership is in direct response to the feedback we have received from our customers who want support beyond abstract review," said Keith Collier, vice president and general manager of ScholarOne, Thomson Reuters. "The products SciVee offers create innovative multimedia components for the world of scholarly publishing and we are confident this partnership will help our clients get the most from their meeting content."

What does this mean to ScholarOne Abstracts users?  From a scholarly standpoint, users can augment their meetings or conferences with fluid, multimedia content.  As a business tool, this application increases post-event revenue opportunities.

"As more scientific endeavors move on-line, SciVee strongly believes that video and rich media will play an increasingly important role," stated Marc Friedmann, CEO of SciVee. "We are pleased to partner with ScholarOne to bring this enhanced capability to their society and conference customers."

ScholarOne Abstracts, a web-based workflow solution, provides those organizing meetings with a secure, complete, cost-effective workflow solution for abstract submission, peer review, program creation, publishing output, and administrative control.
