An international team of researchers (Taiwan, Japan) explains the researcher dynamics of generating and developing Emerging Research Topics (ETs) in life sciences and medicine over the past half-century by analyzing the pre-, contemporary-, and post-participation of researchers publishing articles containing the emerging keywords that are elements of ETs. Their results suggest that, while manpower needs for publication have increased, less manpower is required to generate ETs. These trends illustrate a mode shift in the scientific practice of researchers that have generated and developed ETs over the last 50 years as well as highlight the significance of funding projects with high probabilities of generating high-impact ETs… read more.
