Further Analysis of Renewal Rates for New and Established NIGMS Investigator Projects: Additional Data Analysis-Figure 3

The following data are related to an NIGMS Feedback Loop post from June 18, 2015, on Further Analysis of Renewal Rates for New and Established NIGMS Investigator Projects.

Figure 3: No T2 Application, New Investigator, 206 projects, normalized citation impact/$Million, 1.1 25th percentile 2.8, median, 4.3 75th percentile; No T2 Application, Established Investigator, 343 projects, normalized citation impact/$Million, .7 25th percentile, 1.7 median, 3.2 75th percentile; T2 Application, New Investigator, 543 projects, normalized citation impact/$Million, 2.6 25th percentile, 4.4 median, 7.5 75th percentile; T2 Application, Established Investigator, 449 projects, normalized citation impact/$Million, 1.9 25th percentile, 3.8 median, 6.9 75th percentile; T2 Not Funded, New Investigator, 270 projects, normalized citation impact/$Million, 1.9 25th percentile, 3.3 median, 5.5 75th percentile; T2 Not Funded, Established Investigator, 209 projects, normalized citation impact/$Million, 1.4 25th percentile, 2.4 median, 4.2 75th percentile; T2 Funded, New Investigator, 273 projects, normalized citation impact/$Million, 3.7 25th percentile, 5.9 median, 9.4 75th percentile; T2 Funded, Established Investigator, 240 projects, normalized citation impact/$Million, 3.2 25th percentile, 5.4 median, 9.8 75th percentile.

Figure 3. Distribution of the weighted, normalized citation impact for publications per million dollars of total cost for new R01 projects from new and established investigators funded by NIGMS between Fiscal Years 2004-2007. The normalized citation impact for each publication was obtained from the Thompson Reuters InCites database (Bornmann & Marx, 2013, Kaltman et al., 2014, Danthi et al., 2014). It assigns a value between 0 and 1 to each publication and is a measure of the publication's relative impact normalized for scientific discipline, type of publication (e.g., research article, review, commentary) and publication year. For example, a value of 1 designates publications that were cited the highest compared to other papers within the same scientific discipline, year and publication type. For those projects that resulted in no publications, the summary value was set to 0.
