Institute for Scientific Information shows China<\/span> matching research productivity with excellence, diversifying its research economy and expanding its collaboration network<\/i><\/p>\n

LONDON<\/span>, Oct. 31, 2023<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — Clarivate Plc<\/a> (NYSE:CLVT), a global leader in connecting people and organizations to intelligence they can trust to transform their world, today released a report from the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI)\u2122 which reveals that China’s<\/span>* research economy has seen a dramatic increase in quality and its research is increasingly valued beyond its borders. China<\/span> is also diversifying beyond its traditional strengths in technology and physical sciences to focus on new areas such as biomolecular science.<\/p>\n

China’s<\/span> research landscape<\/a><\/i> draws on data from the Web of Science\u2122 citation index of scientific publications and charts China’s<\/span> remarkable research trajectory over the last 40 years. The report shows an acceleration in published research output, which increased five-fold between 2009 and 2021, well outpacing the U.S. and E.U. Analysis from the Institute for Scientific Information suggests this trajectory is likely to continue.<\/p>\n

China’s<\/span> remarkable research productivity is matched by its increasing research excellence. Its proportion of published research with citation impact above the global average now matches the U.S. and Germany<\/span>. In addition, China’s<\/span> substantial volume of exceptional research in the form of Highly Cited Papers\u2122 exceeds 1,000 per year, indicating that the global scientific community is taking note of what China<\/span> is doing and seeking to collaborate with the researchers delivering these papers.<\/p>\n

Jonathan Adams<\/span>, Chief Scientist at the Institute for Scientific Information at Clarivate, said: "China<\/span> continues its rise as a global science and technology power and our report findings show that the notion that its research output is lagging in quality can be effectively dispelled. While the U.S. remains a key international research partner, China<\/span> is fostering closer collaboration with emerging research economies in the Middle East<\/span> as well as many others. This underlines the importance of research investment as an aid to cultural diplomacy."<\/p>\n
