Web platform for disseminating the scientific production of Scopus-indexed researchers at a university in Lima Norte, Peru

At the Universidad de Ciencias y Humanidades (UCH), the visibility of research is crucial to strengthening collaboration and scientific impact. The lack of adequate technological tools to promote the contributions of its researchers was identified. This project developed an interactive digital totem to facilitate the visibility and recognition of research at the UCH. The methodology used was Design Thinking, which included the phases of Empathize, Define, Ideate, Prototype, and Evaluate. Surveys were carried out on the researchers to find out their needs, which made it possible to create a functional prototype. The interface was developed with React, providing an interactive user experience, while the backend was built with Python and Flask, making it easy to create a robust server. In addition, APIs such as Scopus and a proprietary API based on MongoDB were integrated to manage researchers' information. The results were positive: 100% of respondents felt that the system would increase their interest in research, and 85% highlighted the ease of navigation and relevance of the information. In conclusion, the project fulfilled its objective of promoting research at the UCH, achieving a positive impact on the visibility of scientific production. It is recommended to continue refining the system and adding new functionalities to optimize interaction and expand its reach within the academic community.
