How do I find a list of all studies deposited by researchers from my institution?

  1. First, go to the Find Data page or view all studies.
  2. On the lower left, there are OR- and Staff-Only filters. Click on “view all” within the “Investigator Affiliation” filter.
  3. Now find and click on your institution from this list. You will see a list of all studies deposited by researchers from your institution. Please note there’s an export option that can send these results to a comma-delimited file, which could easily be pulled into Excel for a tidier report.

Some caveats about this system:

  • Data entry errors will result in multiple entries for the same institution. We’re in the process of cleaning this up, but it’s not a small task. You will most likely need to export a few delimited files from different result sets and combine them in Excel.
  • As you will see in the list, the system wasn’t built to gracefully handle researchers who list multiple affiliations, nor does it do a great job of handling departments within a particular university.
  • There are a bunch of entries listed under “The.” We have not been able to correct faceting for entries that begin with “The.” This is a persistent issue we’re having with our search engine (SOLR), and there isn’t a good fix currently.

We are working on tidying the affiliations. If you need a particular item fixed quickly, email [email protected].
