The number h of papers with at least h citations has been proposed to evaluate individual's scientific research production. This index is robust in several ways but yet strongly dependent on the research field. We propose a complementary index hI = h^2/N_t, with N_t being the total number of authors in the considered h papers. A researcher with index hI has hI papers with at least hI citation if he/she had published alone. We have obtained the rank plots of h and hI for four Brazilian…

Mapping Scientific Productivity Trends and Hotspots in Remdesivir Research Publications: A Bibliometric Study from 2016 to 2021
TLDR
The importance of remdesivir suggests that it needs continued research to help global health organizations detect areas requiring instant action to implement suitable measures and offers evolving hotspots and valuable insights into the scientific advances in this field.
AlphaFold2 models indicate that protein sequence determines both structure and dynamics
TLDR
The results indicate that the protein structures predicted by AF2 also convey information of the residue flexibility, i.e., protein dynamics, which reveals that the PAE maps can predict the dynamical nature of protein residues.
Scientific success from the perspective of the strength of weak ties
TLDR
It is shown that scientific success is strongly correlated with the structure of a scientist’s collaboration network, and among two scientists, the one with weaker ties tends to have the higher h-index, and second, teams connected by such ties create more cited publications.
