The data collected by manually visiting the ResearchGate profiles of the faculty members of various departments of KGMU. The study revealed that 32 departments of KGMU having profiles on ResearchGate contributed a total of 1196 publications. The ‘BMJ Case Reports’ comes out as the most preferred and productive journal with 124 articles and 10.37 share.
