New NIH Resource to Analyze COVID-19 Literature: The COVID-19 Portfolio Tool
George Santangelo, Ph.D., Director of NIH Office of Portfolio Analysis In the past few months, the scientific community has ramped up research in response to the SARS‑CoV‑2 pandemic; dozens of peer-reviewed articles and preprints on this topic are being added to the literature every day (Figure 1). This rapidly expanding effort has created a need for a human-curated resource to explore and analyze advances in SARS‑CoV‑2/COVID-19 research as they accumulate in real time. To address this need, the NIH Office of Portfolio Analysis (OPA) has assembled a comprehensive portfolio of COVID‑19 publications and preprin...
