(Press-News.org) Digital Science today announces the launch of Papers Pro, an AI-enhanced premium version of its acclaimed reference manager, Papers.
As part of the ReadCube suite of literature solutions, Papers Pro is designed to make researchers and students more productive in their daily tasks by integrating cutting-edge AI tools to transform how they discover, organize, read, annotate, share and cite research materials.
Search and discovery has always been a core part of the Papers workflow. The launch of Papers Pro introduces new search capabilities, powered by Dimensions, one of the world’s largest linked research databases, to help researchers find relevant content faster than ever before, including AI querying capabilities.
Papers Pro also includes a host of advanced AI-based features, enabling users to craft better search strategies, create natural-language-based filters, uncover insights, and bridge knowledge gaps with unprecedented ease in a private environment. The new AI Assistant allows for seamless interaction with articles stored in the user’s library. The new Chat with PDF capability is also integrated within the Dimensions web experience.
“Papers Pro is set to redefine how researchers and small teams interact with scholarly content,” said Robert McGrath, Co-founder & CEO of ReadCube. “By seamlessly integrating the power of Dimensions search with rich AI-driven workflow capabilities in Papers Pro, we’re empowering users to work smarter, faster, and more effectively. The AI Assistant and AI-powered search available via Papers Pro make it easier than ever to conduct in-depth analysis, spot trends, and explore unfamiliar fields in a private and secure way across all your content in your library.”
Dr Daniel Hook, CEO of Digital Science, said: “We believe that research is the most powerful instrument humanity has at hand to make society better for all. While the potential of AI is widely acknowledged, it is not yet embedded into research processes, and for this to be done responsibly careful thought is needed. At Digital Science, our approach has been to augment existing workflows with AI while ensuring end-to-end transparency – so the user can check and see what is happening at every stage. Given the importance of reproducibility and integrity across all research, researchers have to be able to trust their tools, not only aim for greater efficiency.”
Tailored solutions for researchers
The completely refreshed interface reflects considerable user research and feedback. Every detail has been carefully considered in how to improve Papers Essentials and extend what’s possible with Papers Pro, enhancing each stage of the research workflow through a powerful, intuitive user experience.
Key features include:
Intuitive interface – new design makes navigation through the library and discovery tools faster and more intuitive
The AI Assistant – Chat with PDF feature helps spot trends and identify research gaps
Enhanced search – with access to data spanning more than 150 million publications through Dimensions
Expanded file type storage – securely store and sync a variety of file formats, not just PDFs
Enhanced collaboration – up to 15 shared libraries, among teams of up to 25 with transferable seats
Professor Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe (University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign) recently tested a beta version of the Papers AI Assistant. She wrote in The Scholarly Kitchen:
“I found that, not only did the Papers AI save me a great deal of time by providing me with an overview annotated with links to specific sections of the text, it also often alerted me to places in the text where my topic of interest was conceptually discussed without the use of the specific keywords I would have searched. Most valuable to me is that Papers operates outside the confines of a particular content platform. Acquire or make a PDF, add it to your Papers library, and the text can be interrogated.”
Discover in Dimensions, Chat in Papers Pro
A simple yet powerful new Chat with PDF feature integrated with Papers Pro extends the discovery experience in Dimensions. Once an article has been discovered in Dimensions, the user can click to engage Papers Pro AI features to chat with the PDF in order to:
Screen papers quickly
Get specific answers to detailed questions
Accelerate insights
Papers Pro with AI Assistant, alongside Dimensions and its Chat with PDF function, are available immediately. Dimensions users who don’t yet have a Papers account can set up a 30-day trial to experience all that Papers has to offer.
Sign up for a free 30-day trial of Papers Pro or click on Chat with PDF from within Dimensions to try the integration with Papers.

A research paper by scientists at University of Coimbra proposed an integrated approach targeting the design and fabrication of pneumatic soft actuators in a single casting step. Molds and sacrificial water-soluble hollow cores are printed using fused filament fabrication.
The new research paper, published on Jul. 17 in the journal Cyborg and Bionic Systems, presented an integrated process for the design and fabrication of soft robot actuators in a single casting. The author proved the availability, versatility, and effectiveness of the proposed methods, contributing to accelerating the design and fabrication of soft robots.
Bio-inspired soft robots have already shown the ability to handle ...
Underwater resection of neuroendocrine tumors of the gastrointestinal tract
2024-09-04
Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract are a rare and heterogeneous group of malignancies arising from the neuroendocrine cell system. These tumors are more commonly encountered in the stomach, appendix, small bowel, rectum, and pancreas. Over the past few decades, the incidence of GI NETs has increased due to improved diagnostic capabilities and an aging population. The management of these tumors requires a careful assessment of various factors, including the site, size, grading, depth of invasion, and local lymphadenopathy, as they significantly impact prognosis and treatment ...
Microglial responses to hypernatremia: new insights into brain health
2024-09-04
Microglia are the brain’s immune cells known to play a vital role in maintaining neural function and responding to potential threats. However, when the brain is subjected to hyperosmotic stress—a condition characterized by elevated extracellular sodium levels, the microglial response can become exaggerated, leading to potentially harmful effects. Understanding the mechanisms behind this heightened response is crucial for the treatment of hypernatremia-induced neurological dysfunctions.
To ...
Breaking the link between obesity and atrial fibrillation with a new cellular target
2024-09-04
A cellular link between obesity and atrial fibrillation — a heart condition that afflicts over 33 million people worldwide — presents a promising target for new therapies, researchers from the University of Illinois Chicago report.
Obesity is among the leading causes of atrial fibrillation, an irregular heart rhythm that can lead to heart failure and stroke. But scientists still don’t know how high levels of body fat cause this heart condition.
In a new study published in The Journal of Clinical Investigation, UIC researchers identified a cellular pathway essential to obesity-induced ...
New research has potential to speed up forensic analysis in sexual assault cases
2024-09-04
A team of researchers has developed a radical new technique for analyzing evidence in sexual assault cases. The new approach could streamline the forensics pipeline and reduce delays in the processing of DNA evidence.
The research is described in a paper published today in the journal Advanced Science.
There are almost half a million sexual assaults in Canada every year with many more going unreported. The new approach could mitigate one of the reasons victims are reluctant to report assaults: the perception that ...
Banning friendships can backfire: moms who ‘meddle’ make bad behavior worse
2024-09-04
Delinquent activities almost always occur outside of the home and away from adult supervision, so it is only natural for parents to blame peers for their child’s bad behavior. Not surprisingly, many parents also assume that they can prevent future problems by limiting contact with suspicious peers.
However, a new study cautions parents – especially meddling moms – to resist the temptation to prohibit friendships because doing so only makes a bad situation worse. How can this be?
Results from a new longitudinal study of middle school youth, published in The Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, indicates that maternal disapproval of friends in ...
