Notes | Chapter 1: Introduction -- Chapter 2: The Fundamentals, Misuse and Abuses of Bibliometrics -- Chapter 3: Thematic Evaluation of Nigeria’s Bibliometric Research Publications -- Chapter 4: Bibliometric Profile of the Health Sciences Professors in Nigerian Universities -- Chapter 5: Bibliometric Profile of the Nigerian Academy of Science Health Sciences Fellows -- Chapter 6: Bibliometric Profile of the Nigerian Health Sciences Professors in the Diaspora -- Chapter 7: Summative Analysis and Recommendations This book is the first authoritative study of the research output and scientific impact of Nigerian health academics, including those in the diaspora. Around the world, policymakers and academics measure the scientific impact of research at national and international levels using bibliometric measures. Unfortunately, there is limited data on scientists' research productivity and impact in developing countries, particularly in Africa. Therefore, normative bibliometric information from different countries is needed to address the challenges faced by scientists in Africa. This book contributes to filling this research gap. Additionally, the author addresses the controversies surrounding the use of bibliometrics in judging research productivity and offers recommendations to improve research systems. Joseph Abiodun Balogun is a former Dean and retired Distinguished Professor at the College of Health Sciences at Chicago State University, USA. He is also Emeritus Professor of Physiotherapy, and Associate Director of Research Development and Innovation at the University of Medical Sciences, Ondo City, Nigeria, and Visiting Professor/Program Consultant at the Centre of Excellence in Reproductive Health Innovation, University of Benin, Nigeria.
