23. Citation Gecko
• Gecko helps to find the most relevant papers to your research and
give you a more complete sense of the research landscape.
• Simply provide several 'seed papers' that define an area you are
interested in and Gecko will search out all the papers that they cite
and all the papers that cite them.

24. Citation Gecko
• It then builds a network from all of these papers allowing you to
quickly identify important papers.
• For example, papers that are cited by all of your seed papers are
likely to be important foundational papers in the field, whilst papers
that cite a lot of the seed papers are likely to be more recent
papers in the same area that might be worth reading.
