Abstract Journal articles constitute the core documents for diffusion of knowledge in natural sciences. It has been argued that same is not true social sciences and humanities where more often disseminated monographs are indexed journal‐based databases used bibliometric analysis. Previous studies have made only partial assessments role played by both serials other types literature. The importance journal literature various scientific fields therefore systematically characterized. authors...
Classification schemes for scientific activity and publications underpin a large swath of research evaluation practices at the organizational, governmental, national levels. Several classifications are currently in use, they require continuous work as new classification techniques becomes available topics emerge. Convolutional neural networks, subset “deep learning” approaches, have recently offered novel highly performant methods classifying voluminous corpora text. This article benchmarks...
Historians and social scientists view the distinction between research care as diachronically synchronically contingent, rather than transcendental, is often case in bioethics. Comparing how notion of total was used 1950s with present-day use that same term by genomically informed oncology programs, paper argues needs: to be historicized, examining its repeated emergence re-definition, shifting relations these two "ideal-typical" components; problematized, paying attention entities,...
Abstract Cross-disciplinary research (multi-/interdisciplinarity) is incentivized by funding agencies to foster outcomes addressing complex societal challenges. This study focuses on the link between cross-disciplinary and its uptake in a broad set of policy-related documents. Using new policy-oriented database Overton, matched Scopus, logistic regression was used assessing this relationship publications from FP7- H2020-supported projects. captured through two lenses at paper level, namely...
A growing number of studies science, technology and innovation policy are taking argumentative practices as a privileged unit analysis. Underpinning this development is the observation that, empirically, policies often formulated implemented through bargaining between competing coalitions actors. I put claim to practice by examining recent emergence translational research medicine central priority in biomedical USA Germany. Drawing on document analysis semi-structured interviews with...
Chronic noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) in low‐ and middle‐income countries have recently provoked a surge of public interest. This article examines the policy literature—notably archives publications World Health Organization (WHO), which has dominated this field—to analyze emergence consolidation new agenda. Starting with programs to control cardiovascular disease 1970s, experts from Eastern Western Europe had by late 1980s consolidated program for prevention NCD risk factors at WHO. NCDs...
Increasing the rate of biomedical research that is relevant to clinical innovation has been an intensifying concern community and policy-makers. In response, some these actors have recently promoted varied approaches they label as translational (TR) medicine. This movement started in USA early 1990s, since evolved encompass large ambitious initiatives. Its advocates contend productivity systems can be bolstered by: (1) extension large-scale development collaborations; (2) strengthening...
Against the background of a number first drug-diagnostic co-products developed and introduced into European market, decision-makers feel impelled to react position themselves in field personalized medicine. Their reactions cover broad range, from analysis knowledge requirements for market approval need translational activities possible contribution pharmacogenetics public health. This article summarizes current positions institutions, based on literature review expert consultation three...
