DESCRIPTION:How is science produced? How do scientists collabo
 rate? Can innovation be nurtured? Can scientific b
 reakthroughs be predicted? Quantitative science st
 udies is a discipline that examines papers\, colla
 borations\, researchers\, patents\, and scientific
  events to address these questions. It designs ind
 icators and applies models to analyze these elemen
 ts. Initially devised to study science\, some of t
 hese methods have since been applied in evaluating
  and monitoring scientific activities for effectiv
 e management and strategic planning. This talk wil
 l provide an overview of the discipline\, explorin
 g its key research questions and current progress.
