This chapter presents an analysis29 of the impact of Danish scientific publications that were the result of FP6 or FP7 funding. The purpose is to gain an insight into the scientific impact researchers can achieve when participating in FP6 and FP7.
In order to look at impact we have identified citations belonging to scientific
publications with at least one Danish author. This is done using data from the international citation database Web of Science (WoS). These results are compared to the results of the bibliometric analyses from the previous evaluations of the Danish National Research Foundation (DNRF) and the Danish Council for Independent Research (DFF). Finally the analyses also explore the impact at the level of programme themes under FP6 and FP7.
