The effect of the coronavirus on society and the global economy is unprecedented and it will need to trigger extraordinary research efforts.
The aim of this page is to allow the monitoring of the research landscape on Coronavirus. It relies on datasets containing scientific publications, patents, and EU-funded R&D projects. The interactive tool allows the user to navigate the data and customise the visualisation using filters, showing cumulated values, bar charts, etc..
A CORONAVIRUS public space in TIM has been made available for anybody to explore and navigate the data.

Patents on Coronavirus vaccines - Number of patents per year
This visualisation reflects the number of patent families per year on the topic. The year refers to the priority year of the patent. The drop in 2018 and 2019 is inherent to patent systems and is just due to a delay in the data. The number of patents per year seems quite unstable, with some peaks corresponding again to 2003 and 2012. |
