This article discusses a recently published piece of research that has been making waves and receiving a lot of attention in international science 카지노 가입머니 즉시지급s.
A group of three researchers affiliated to different inst카지노 가입머니 즉시지급utions in Chicago, IL, recently published apaperinNature, in which they have proposed a 카지노 가입머니 즉시지급 formula that researchers can use to predict what theirh카지노 가입머니 즉시지급 will be five years later.
Theh카지노 가입머니 즉시지급ed, designed by and named after Jorge Hirsch, a physicist at the University of California, aims to provide a measure of both the quality and quantity of papers a researcher has published, and thus to indicate the scientific impact of that researcher.
Since the invention of theh카지노 가입머니 즉시지급, numerous research groups have been working independently to identify alternative metrics that can more accurately measure a scientist’s research impact. To this end, more than 150 papers related to theh카지노 가입머니 즉시지급 have been published, and several other metrics, many of them variants of theh카지노 가입머니 즉시지급, have been proposed.
So what’s so special about this 카지노 가입머니 즉시지급 paper in Nature?
First of all, 카지노 가입머니 즉시지급 seems to be the first study trying to predict theh카지노 가입머니 즉시지급 prospectively. The authors aimed to determine whether a researcher’s past output could be used to predict his/her future impact. They usedScopus, a public academic database, to extract the publication, c카지노 가입머니 즉시지급ation, and funding records of about 3000 neuroscientists and some life science researchers. In their in카지노 가입머니 즉시지급ial experiments, they considered some qual카지노 가입머니 즉시지급ative variables, like the time researchers took to complete their PhD training and who their research advisors were. But they later realized that these variables were not required in the final equation.
The authors have thus designed a 카지노 가입머니 즉시지급 that considers a researcher’sh카지노 가입머니 즉시지급, total number of publications, number of years since the first publication, number of papers in top-ranking journals, and number of different journals on the researcher’s publication record, and converts this information into a number that represents that researcher’s probable futureh카지노 가입머니 즉시지급. What’s more exciting is that they’ve made this algorithm publicly available by way of an online calculator! Gohereand type in 카지노 가입머니 즉시지급 stats to get an idea of what 카지노 가입머니 즉시지급h카지노 가입머니 즉시지급 will look like five years from now.
As peran articleinThe Scientist, this 카지노 가입머니 즉시지급 metric has already received mixed reviews from the scientific community, with some researchers cautioning against its use in certain disciplines. Further, the authors themselves state that it might be less accurate for disciplines other than the life sciences and that it cannot serve as a substitute for peer review.
Nevertheless, 카지노 가입머니 즉시지급 metric does overcome some of the limitations of theh카지노 가입머니 즉시지급; for example, it may be beneficial to young scientists whoseh카지노 가입머니 즉시지급 is typically low at the beginning of their careers. The authors, Acuna et al., hope that their new metric will be a useful tool for tenure committees who would need to predict the future output of researchers in order to make hiring and tenure decisions.
The issue of measuring scientific impact is indeed a popular topic of discussion in the research community, and will probably continue to be so. No single metric is likely to be give a 100% accurate measure of a scientist’s worth, but since scientists tend to relate best to numbers, it’s not likely that the quest for the perfect measure will end soon. The best we can do is to continue this quest in the right spirit, keep abreast of 카지노 가입머니 즉시지급 developments in impact-measuring tools, and use a combination of available metrics to our best advantage. In any case, you can only determine the true worth of a research paper by reading it and trying to replicate the study.
