LA JOLLA\u2014(November 17, 2016) The Salk Institute ranks second in the world for high-quality, high-impact scientific collaborations in the life sciences, and in the top 50 for both overall collaboration and bilateral collaboration, according to a new report by Nature Research.<\/p>\n

The data, publishing November 16, 2016 as a supplement to Naturaleza<\/em> in a report called Nature Index 2016 Collaborations, use a series of metrics related to papers published between January 1, 2012 and December 31, 2015 to evaluate over 8,500 scientific institutions across the globe. The index, designed to be a tool for assessing research performance, charts which countries and institutions are the most efficient at producing high-quality results based on publications in top-tier journals.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe strength of the Salk Institute’s collaborations in the life sciences is commendable. The institute placed second in the world in the table of top collaborators in that field,\u201d says Richard Hughes, publishing director of Nature Research. \u201cThis performance follows a marked increase in the institute’s output of high-quality papers between 2012 and 2015, which saw it listed as one of Nature Index’s 25 ‘rising stars’ in North America this year.\u201d<\/p>\n

Salk was ranked second worldwide, behind only Harvard, in a list of the top 50 overall collaborators to the life sciences based on a ratio of collaborations to institution size. Salk also ranked number 47 on the list of the top 100 bilateral contributors, and number 50 on the list of top 100 overall collaborators worldwide.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur reputation for encouraging collaboration is one of the main reasons top scientists choose to come to Salk,\u201d says Salk President Elizabeth Blackburn<\/a>. \u201cWe are delighted to have our researchers\u2019 generosity of spirit and commitment to excellence recognized in Nature Index.\u201d<\/p>\n

Since its inception, the Salk Institute has focused on providing its scientists the flexibility and infrastructure to collaborate across fields and across institutions, knowing that such intellectual crossovers can spark remarkable discoveries. The Institute\u2019s unique collaborative infrastructure, cutting-edge technologies and world-class talents enable ambitious inroads in pursuing solutions to some of the world\u2019s most pressing health problems. From cancer and diabetes to Alzheimer\u2019s and autism, Salk scientists are making biomedical advances to help enable people to live longer, healthier lives. And for a planet stressed by drought and climate change, Salk researchers are discovering how to make plants\u2014especially food crops\u2014live longer, healthier lives too. As Salk has shown time and again, collaborations across institutes and across scientific fields pave the way for new discoveries.<\/p>\n

First launched in November 2014, the Nature Index database tracks the author affiliations of research articles published in a group of 68 high-quality natural science journals, which have been selected by independent panels of active scientists. Responses from over 2,800 individuals to a large-scale survey were used to validate the selections.<\/p>\n

The Nature Index uses three counts of article output: article count (AC), which assigns a rank of one for each article that has at least one author from that institute; fractional count (FC), which takes into account the relative contribution of each author to an article; and weighted fractional count (WFC), which applies a weighting to fractional count to adjust for the overrepresentation of papers from astronomy and astrophysics.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","faculty":[],"disease-research":[279],"class_list":["post-11589","disclosure","type-disclosure","status-publish","hentry","disease-research-awards"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nSalk Institute ranked #2 in world for life sciences collaborations by Nature Index -
