We are Mariners. It is not a mascot like Lions or Bears. It is our identity. Mariners form a tight-knit, resilient community. Mariners unite in the most difficult times and display tremendous strength and character in the face of adversity. Our hearts have been broken, but our spirit and our resolve has grown stronger. We are Mariners. Mariners Forever. ⚓️

"An ambitious free index of more than 200 million scientific documents that catalogues publication sources, author information and research topics, has been launched.

The index, called OpenAlex after the ancient Library of Alexandria in Egypt, also aims to chart connections between these data points to create a comprehensive, interlinked database of the global research system, say its founders."

OpenAlex catalogues hundreds of millions of scientific documents and charts connections between them.
