SciTech Benefit
Allocating funds for emerging science is one of the most challenging decisions in science policy. The accuracy of a map of emerging science is increased by linking the rigors of a citation-based partitioning with expert judgments. Insights into the underlying structure of science helps frame the strategic issues. Validated data on what areas of research are ‘hot’ is especially valuable to decision-makers
