Objective: several studies have examined the academic production of the researchers at the CNPq, in several areas of knowledge. The aim of this study was to evaluate the scientific production of researchers in Hematology/Oncology who hold scientific productivity grants from the Brazilian Council for Scientific and Technological Development. Methods: the Academic CVs of 28 researchers in Hematology/Oncology with active grants in the three-year period from 2006 to 2008 were included in the analysis. The variables of interest were: institution, researchers’ time after doctorate, tutoring of undergraduate students, masters and PhD degree, scientific production and its impact. Results: from a total of 411 researchers in Medicine, 28 (7%) were identified as being in the area of Hematology/Oncology. There was a slight predominance of males (53.6%) and grant holders in category 1. Three Brazilian states are responsible for approximately 90% of the researchers: São Paulo (21,75%), Rio de Janeiro (3,11%), and Minas Gerais (2, 7%). During their academic careers, the researchers published 2,655 articles, with a median of 87 articles per researcher (IQR = 52 to 122). 65 and 78% of this total were indexed on the Web of Science and Scopus databases, respectively. The researchers received 14,247 citations on the WoS database with a median of 385 citations per researcher. The average number of citations per article was 8.2. Conclusion: in this investigation, it was noted that researchers in the field of Hematology/Oncology have a relevant scientific output from the point of view of quantity and quality compared to other medical specialties.

Abstract: Introduction: The aim of this study was to describe the profile and scientific production of research fellows of the Brazilian Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq) in the neuroscience area. Methods: We created a database containing 542 researchers who were CNPq fellows in Medicine, of which 94 (17.34%) worked mainly in the neuroscience area. Results: The researchers were distributed in eight Brazilian States: São Paulo (n=49; 52.12%), Rio Grande do Sul (n=22; 23.40%), Rio de Janeiro (n=9; 9.57%), Minas Gerais (n=5; 5.31%), Ceará (n=4; 4.25%), Santa Catarina (n=3; 3.19%), Espirito Santo (n=1; 1.06) and Paraná (n=1, 1.06%). Although the neuroscience researchers were from more than 20 institutions, 58.5% worked in only 3 of those, namely USP (n=30), UFRGS (n=15) and UNIFESP (n=10). The median time since obtaining the PhD degree was 18.27 years (range, 5-39). Throughout their academic careers, 94 researchers published 16,488 papers in scientific journals, with an average of 175.40 articles per researcher (ranging from 43 to 715 articles). Of the 16,488 articles,12,801 or 77.63% were indexed at Web of Science (mean of 136.18 articles/researcher), while 10,166 or 61.65% were indexed at Scopus database (mean of 108.14 articles/researcher). Overall, those researchers advised 1,279 undergraduate students (median of 13.60; range: 0-68), of which 1,329 were master’s degree students (median of 14.13; range: 1-49) and 970 PhD students (median of 10.54; range: 0-42). The fellows’ median H-index at ISI was 23.75. Conclusion: It is observed that the neuroscience fellows constitute a group with significant scientific production (the fellows’ median H-index at ISI was 23.75). Most of these scientific publications were indexed at the Web of Science (77.63%) and Scopus (61.65%) databases. Human resources training are also highlighted, including undergraduate students, master’s degree students and PhD students. Comparative studies with researchers from other countries, in similar areas of knowledge, are necessary to better understand the present results.

SUMMARY BACKGROUND. This study aimed to evaluate the scientific production of researchers in the field of Medicine who receive a productivity grant from the CNPq. METHODS: The curriculum Lattes of 542 researchers with active grants from 2012 to 2014 were included in the analysis. Grants categories/levels were stratified into three groups according to the CNPq database (1A-B, 1C-D, and 2). RESULTS. There was a predominance of grants in category 2. During their academic career, Medicine researchers published 76512 articles, with a median of 119 articles per researcher (IQ, interquartile range, 77 to 174). Among the 76512 articles, 36584 (47.8%) were indexed in the Web of Science (WoS database). Researchers in Medicine were cited 643159 times in the WoS database, with a median of 754 citations (IQ, 356 to 1447). There were significant differences among the categories of grants concerning the number of citations in WoS (P <0.001). There was a significant difference in the number of times researchers were cited according to the specialty included in Medicine area. (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION. Strategies to improve the scientific output qualitatively possibly can be enhanced by the knowledge of the profile of researchers in the field of Medicine.

ABSTRACT Objective To characterize researchers in the Nutrition field awarded with Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico research productivity fellowships and evaluate their scientific production according to an analysis of curricula registered on the Lattes Platform. Methods The study is cross-sectional and descriptive in scope, and was developed from October 2014 to February 2015. The productivity fellowships/Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico researchers were identified from the Lattes Platform, and their curriculum lattes were downloaded for data collation. Information on the profiles of the researchers and the bibliometric data of productivity (published articles, articles and citations registered on ISI/Web of Science and Scopus databases, impact of the publications, and academic advising) were collected. Results Eighty researchers were identified and evaluated. A total of 67.5% were female and 53.5% were classified as category 2. Approximately two-thirds (65.0%) were located in Southeastern Brazil. The sum of articles published by the researchers from the beginning of their career until the end of the study came to 7,358 (median=84 per researcher, interquartile range=53–285). Of these publications, 45.0% were indexed in the Web of Science and 62.0% in Scopus. Of the journals where the articles were published, 70.0% had an impact factor. Conclusion Most publications were performed in journals with an impact factor, indicating the influence of Brazilian nutrition studies on society and their potential for guiding public policies on nutrition and health.

Achieving the national goals of ensuring economic growth and improving national welfare in modern conditions is impossible without increasing the efficiency of managing the development of all spheres of society, both at the federal and regional levels. At the same time, the policy pursued by bodies of state power and administration is not yet systematic, and its effectiveness is not high enough. In domestic management practice, the most commonly used is the program-targeted approach, including in the field of scientific and innovative activities. However, from a scientific point of view, the rationale for the effectiveness of its use is not properly implemented and from the standpoint of the author is of certain scientific interest. The purpose of this study is to systematize and generalize the theoretical aspects of the application of the program-target approach in managing the development of the scientific and technological space. For this, the author of the article examined the practice of applying the program-target approach in the management of territories, analyzed domestic and foreign experience in using the program-target approach in management. The article discusses in detail the main provisions of the Strategy for scientific and technological development of the Russian Federation, as a fundamental document in this area of management, gives an assessment of its main elements; conclusions are drawn about the directions of its possible adjustment. The suggestions indicate the appropriateness of applying an integrated approach to the formulation of priorities for scientific and technological development, taking into account both external big challenges and ways to develop human abilities and capabilities to solve problems that do not yet exist.

This research questions the possibilities offered by citation studies, in interlocution with the bases of genealogical-intellectual theory, that allow to perceive affiliations and contrapositions of scientific thinking, identifying the main groups, schools of thought and their relational unfolding throughout the generations in the information science, particularly in the scientific production of the stock exchange researchers of the National Council of Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq). Part of Lloyd's (1995, 18) argument that the validity of a scientific study lies in the search for articulation of empirical research with a theoretical and methodological framework that favors the understanding of the scientific object. It aims to understand the dynamics of the most evident relations between the scientific production of the set of 23 researchers of levels 1 and Senior, of the CNPq area of CI, with scholarships in force between the years 2008 and 2017, and the theoretical ascendant referents that guide this production. To achieve this purpose, it identifies and analyzes the theoretical references of this universe, highlighting the evolution of these relations from a corpus consisting of 598 standardized articles from the period between 1972 and 2017, collected from the Brapci database. It maps the relationships between cited authors, citations and years of publication, using The Vantage Point® software. It emphasizes the constellations constituted by researchers like Guimarães and Fujita; Kobashi, Lara and Tálamo; Barreto and González de Gomez; Amaral and Robredo. It points out, the genealogical theoretical relations perceptible in: Farradane, Barreto and González de Gomez; Smit and Guimarães, among others. It distinguishes thematic approaches in groups that link authors with the same theoretical nuclei. Kobashi (PQ1) is the most present in the set of quotations of the pairs themselves, among which are also Mueller, Guimarães, Lara and Barreto, who are referents for representatives of different institutions. Although the network seems egocentric, centered on PQ1 and Senior, its quoted outside the list of analyzed PQs intermediate relations, bringing evidence of common theoretical affiliation, such as: Bourdieu intermediating Marteleto and Bufrem, Meadows intermediating Bufrem and Mueller, Foskett intermediating Fujita and Guimarães, among others. It lists the quotations from the 1970s to the 2010 and points out that the authors with the longest stay in the period are not always the most cited. It indicates the presence of the referents in three decades: Robredo, present in the first three; Mueller, in the second, third and fourth decade; and Bourdieu and Barreto, who remain in the last three. Although it appears only in the last decade, Hjørland has expressive representativeness in the computation. In the last two decades, González de Gomez is the most cited among the authors, Kobashi, Lancaster, Guimarães, Lara, Cunha, Habermas, Saracevic and Tálamo are the set of referents, among which the highlighted in previous research (Bufrem, Silva &amp; Sobral, 2017). Finally, it states that every descendant, albeit with an individual and original creative project, receives mediating influences from his ascendants, in the field in which he acts, influenced by the spirit of time and the consciousness of belonging to a consistent theoretical lineage.

Approaches to the formation of priorities of R&D development are analyzed: among them determination of goals, formation of R&D problems to be solved, analysis of available resources. The criteria the procedures of priorities of scientific and technological development to be met are formulated. The historical retrospective of the scientific and technological development of mankind is considered from the point of view of overcoming the deficits of key resources that arose at various stages of development (food, energy, information, etc.). It is noted that scientific and technical breakthroughs occurred when resources significant for the development of mankind were in deficit. A model of R&D priorities formation is proposed, based on the analysis of the prospects for the occurrence of resource deficits used by a mankind in its activities. Examples of using the proposed approach for analyzing information resources are given.
