The researcher's raison d'etre
by Mailing List Manager 07 Jul '03

07 Jul '03

Date: Mon, 7 Jul 2003 12:13:43 +0530 From: Subbiah Arunachalam <arun(a)mssrf.res.in> The researcher's raison d'etre In the coming century a researcher will not simply be an inventor, but also a communicator who transmits the world's most advanced scientific achievements and thoughts to society, and who keeps the large scientific and educational "factories" of local societies in a state of good repair. This means that he is an inventor, an importer of knowledge and a maintenance person all in one. We, as researchers, are both globally minded scholars and locally committed citizens. And we are responsible for the level of knowledge and also for the competitiveness of the local society. Ferenc Glatz President Hungarian Academy of Sciences In his opening address: Science in the 21st century At the World Conference on Science, in Budapest in 1999 (UNESCO:2000)

sorry for cross posting if any!! ------------------------------------------ Thomson ISI Announces Highest-Impact Journals of the Decade Ranked by Citations Per Paper from 1992 to 2002 Philadelphia PA, USA June 24, 2003 � In the latest issue of Science Watch, Thomson ISI announced the highest-impact journals in selected fields of science over the last decade. In the May/June issue, the Science Watch feature article lists the top 10 journals according to citations per paper in 11 main fields (biology & biochemistry, chemistry, clinical medicine, immunology, microbiology, molecular biology & genetics, neuroscience & behavior, pharmacology, physics, plant & animal sciences, and space science). For these rankings, Science Watch turned to the Thomson ISI Web-based evaluation tool, Essential Science Indicators, which tracks publication and citation data over the last 10 years (with updates every two months). These findings are based on papers published and cited in journals indexed by Thomson ISI between January 1, 1992 and December 31, 2002. In addition to ranking specialty journals in each field, Essential Science Indicators also assigns individual papers in multidisciplinary journals to their respective fields. Of the multidisciplinary journals, Nature and Science enjoy particularly strong showings. Some of the specialty journals making the lists include the New England Journal of Medicine (Clinical Medicine), Brain (Neuroscience & Behavior), Drugs (Pharmacology & Toxicology, and Neuron (Neuroscience & Behavior), to name just a few. To obtain a PDF of the complete story and lists of rankings in each field, visit www.isinet.com/presentrep/pdf/sfx936.pdf. ----------------------------------------------- __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
