Eugene Garfield and the Evaluation Process for Science and Technology
Journal Title: NanoWorld Journal - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Eugene Garfield, who died in Philadelphia on February 26, 2017 at the age of 92 years old, was one of the founders of bibliometrics and scientometrics creating Current Contents, Science Citation Index (SCI), Journal Citation Reports, and Index Chemicus, among others, and founded the magazine. The Scientist capable to dramatically influence the evaluation process of scientists, physicians and engineers and the grants assignments worldwide in the academia, health and industry. Eugene Garfield death is why all changed since then in late February 2017 for Science and Technology took place worldwide and more will change from now on if we do not do something immediately. Just on January 23, 2018 after my return to USA in Arizona I have indeed been brought to consult the Wikipedia and discovered looking the Website what was happening worldwide against Impact Factor.
