Kudos provides authors of ADA journal articles with a platform to engage broad audiences with their publications, helping to improve and accelerate understanding of frontline diabetes research. The Kudos service is integrated into ADA’s author workflow, making it as simple as possible for authors to explain and share their latest articles and to access a comprehensive overview of article usage, altmetric, and other behavioral data in a dashboard view. Using Kudos has been shown to increase full-text downloads by 23%, and it is available at no cost to ADA authors.
