Between 1997 and 2001, ISI indexed 33,060 papers that each listed at least one author address in Austria. Of those papers, the highest percentage appeared in journals classified under the heading of clinical medicine, followed by immunology and space science. As the right-hand column
shows, the citations-per-paper score for clinical-medicine papers from Austria
was just 5% below the world average in (4.32 citations per paper for Austria, versus a world baseline of 4.54 citations). On the basis of relative impact, Austrian performance was particularly strong in physics, pharmacology, and materials science. And in neurosciences, Austrian impact happened to match the world mark precisely: 7.30 cites per paper.
