H-Index

A few days back, Alex posted about a new, easy way to calculate one's Hirsch Number ("H-Index"), a widely used measure of one's publications' worth. Yup, I did it for me and no, I am not telling you my number....

The site that published this, The Epidemiologic Enquiry, now that I had some time to take a longer look, has a bunch of other interesting things posted about scientific/medical publishing and the methods of epidemiological research. Worth a look.

Google Scholar is crap for citations.
