Preliminary content

  • Introduction (about main study)
  • Special considerations when using bibliometrics to study research activities in companies
  • Examples of issues in research and innovation policies for bibliometric study where companies are involved
  • Unique opportunities to extend CWTS-project of Cardiometabolic diseases to explore the role of the business sector
  • Which companies are doing research on cardiometabolic diseases where? (data already in Alfredo’s table)
  • How is that research distributed across different ”subfields” and are there any major differences between countries in this regard? (data already in Alfredo’s table)
  • How does the distribution of company research across ”subfields” compare with that of research organizations for selected countries? (data in for research org. in dashboard; make available as table?)
  • Which research organizations are research partners of major companies? (see below)
  • What patterns can be seen in this regard in terms of domestic and international collaborations and differences between fields. (examples from selected subfields and companies?) (see below)
  • What role do selected companies play in the research which they publish (Alfredo will explore by looking at co-authorship patterns, corresponding authors, etc.)
  • Can bibliometric data reveal anything about the activities of start-ups and young companies? (consider later)
  • The relative role of research on cardiometabolic diseases in the total research portfolio of AstraZeneca, NovoNordisk and a few selected comparable companies. (data from Tobias?)
  • Dynamics? CWTS-data covers too short time period. KTH-clusters that correspond well to CWTS-Clusters might be studied over longer period for selected countries/organizations.
