India among top 13 countries in scientific papers
"We examined these papers on a global scale and identified which nations are leading scientific thought across all concentrations. Considering the sheer volume of papers published by the US, it is no surprise to see it top the rankings of total number of papers among the top one percent," said King.
Japan ranked second with 790,510 published papers, or roughly a third of the US output.
Britain also had a profound influence by placing second highest in both total number of papers, and percentage of papers among the top one percent by having published 660,808 papers.
Thomson Scientific says: "Our goal is to increase the impact of research by empowering researchers with the information they need to accelerate discovery."
