WISER: Locating research funding

WISER: Bibliometrics: the black art of citation rankings
Friday 15 May2009
Mystified by metrics? Anxious about impact factors? Happy with your h-index? The next research assessment exercise is likely to place heavy emphasis on the use of these measures, so it's worth getting a grip on them now. This session will endeavour to explain how they work, how they are interpreted and how reliable they are.
