Research output of Morningside Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences faculty: A visual review

Abstract

Research metrics can be used to demonstrate individual research output but also the research output of a group and their contributions to scientific effort. Traditional research metrics have been limited to publication and citation counts and journal impact measures. New tools allow for a broader perspective and an exploration of public engagement with the inclusion of altmetrics such as mentions in traditional and social media, citations in policy documents, and downloads. Similarly, network analysis of bibliometric data can demonstrate the power of co-authorship and collaboration, as well as reveal trending topics. By using the 2020-2022 research output of current Morningside Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences faculty at UMass Chan Medical School, what conclusions can be drawn by seeing all these metrics visually? This poster will display a variety of research metrics and discuss the strengths and weaknesses of each.
