About

Sandra Kukolj is a researcher specializing in patent informatics and competitive intelligence, with a focus on developing tools to extract actionable insights from patent documents. Her most notable contribution is the creation of PSALM (Patent Search and Analysis for Landscaping and Management), a pioneering tool designed to streamline the complex process of patent mining for strategic decision-making. In her 2015 paper detailing PSALM, Kukolj addressed the critical challenge of navigating vast, unstructured patent data, offering a solution that enables users to track relevant patents, identify trends, and support competitive landscaping. While her work has garnered modest citation counts—with her key paper cited three times—it represents a foundational effort in making patent analysis more accessible for researchers and industry professionals. Kukolj’s research bridges information science and business strategy, providing practical methods for leveraging intellectual property data. Her contributions are particularly valuable for students and practitioners in innovation management, highlighting the importance of systematic patent analysis in driving research and development decisions.
