I joined Elsevier in 2017 as a Research Intelligence Customer Consultant covering the Eastern United States to advise in research management and analysis tools. I regularly consult research directors and managers on what they can do to improve their institutional research strategy utilizing Elsevier tools. Before coming to Elsevier, I was a chemist with Sigma-Aldrich and then became the lead in business development for their Stable Isotope division. I am a firm advocate of researchers helping researchers.
Charity Elifritz
Like many of my colleagues, I started off as a chemist and then became an academic librarian. I am a Senior Research Intelligence consultant covering the Western US. In this role I help research leaders and professionals turn information into actionable knowledge. I am a strong advocate for the responsible use of research metrics throughout the analytics landscape. What brings me joy are family, animals and Scopus.
Linda Galloway
As part of the Academic and Government Custom Solutions Group, I am responsible for helping US Government Agencies, such as the National Institute of Health, leverage Elsevier technologies to achieve greater efficiency and productivity with regard to research, funding, finding and matching subject matter experts, and more.
Eric Livingston
As a Research Intelligence consultant, I help research professionals understand their strengths, assess research potential, and develop strategies to attract best talent and increase funding. I’ve been with Elsevier for more than 15 years, and support the Midwest and Southern US. I have deep understanding of research intelligence systems and tools and enjoy my work with clients.
