ResearchHub has created Hubs, collaborative spaces organized around research fields, allowing users to connect, share knowledge, and work together.

Hubs provide a community-centric approach to organizing research discussions and collaborations. Users that publish original content on ResearchHub can select one or multiple Hubs to host their papers.\
\
Hubs have been initially pre-seeded by using [OpenAlex concept tags](https://docs.openalex.org/api-entities/concepts). This means that any OpenAlex concept is automatically added to ResearchHub as it's own unique Hub.&#x20;

Selected Hubs on ResearchHub are curated by [Editors](https://docs.researchhub.com/researchhub-foundation/programs-and-initiatives/editorial-program), fostering scientific discussion and moderating their respective Hubs.
