While Asia has the most publications in biomedical AI research, 70 percent of high-quality publications are by North American and European researchers. Manuscripts that appear in renowned biomedical journals and are cited particularly frequently are considered to be high quality publications. These are the findings of the latest study of Professor Dr. Marc Lerchenmüller and Dr. Leo Schmallenbach, economists at the University of Mannheim. The study was published in the renowned journal Nature Communications this week. Co-author of the study is Professor Dr. Dr. Till Bärnighausen from Heidelberg University.
