Beyond impact factor, h-Index and university rankings: Evaluate science in more meaningful ways
The conference aims to:
• Highlight the limitations of metrics in capturing scientific quality and the resulting pressure on the quality of scientific output;
• Present assessment approaches - San Francisco Declaration on Research Assessment DORA, Leiden Manifesto for Research Metrics - that challenge conventional metrics;
• Consider whether steps are necessary to maintain the high quality of the Swiss science landscape long-term.
