What Is the Scientific, Technical & Medical Information Segment?
At its core, the Scientific, Technical & Medical Information (STM) publishing and information provider market covers all activities related to the creation, usage of, and extraction and addition of value to primary research content in the science, technical and technological R&D, medical research, and healthcare areas. Increasingly, STM publishers are diversifying to include the social sciences, arts, and humanities – sometimes referred to as STMS. As well as traditional journal articles and book chapters, STM content extends to raw and curated data sets, “grey” literature (e.g., white papers, technical guidelines, and reports), patents, standards, workflow-centric decision support tools, and the aggregation and synthesis of secondary behavioral data generated from the usage of primary information (analytics).
