Bibliometrics and bibliometric analysis

Bibliometrics is the field of research and application that deals with the quantitative analysis of scientific output and its influence. Bibliometric analyses apply statistical methods to the results of research. They not only enable analyses of publication and research performance (e.g. benchmarking and rankings), but also provide researchers and science organisers with insights into research trends, networks and the influence of research output. We can advise you and answer all your questions about bibliometrics. We provide advice and support if you would like to use bibliometrics as an analytical tool.
