STI 2013 - 18th International Conference on Science and Technology Indicators

Translational twists and turns:
Science as a socio-economic endeavor
4-6th September 2013
Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Sciences and Humanities, Berlin, Germany
In 2010 two prominent international conference series were merged - the ENID series and the ’Leiden’ STI Series. The now annual STI Conference is devoted to bringing together researchers, STI indicator producers and users, as well as other stakeholders.
It aims to provide a European and worldwide forum for presenting and discussing advances in constructing, using and interpreting STI indicators. Thus a better understanding is gained with regard to STI indicators applied in different contexts which range from understanding institutional structures, developmental processes and contexts of science itself to their use as analytical tools in knowledge management and science policy decision making.
The STI conference is organized under the auspice of ENID, the European Network of Indicator Designers.
