(PLOS) A group from the National Institute of Health's Office of Portfolio Analysis has developed a new metric, known as the Relative Citation Ratio, which will allow researchers and funders to quantify and compare the influence of a scientific article. In a Meta-Research Article publishing Sept. 6 in the open access journal, PLOS Biology, George Santangelo and colleagues describe RCR, which measures a scientific publication's influence in a way that is article-level and field-independent.
