#10,710,787
of 34,358,242 outputs
Outputs from EMBO Journal
#8,410
of 14,095 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#62,314
of 220,612 outputs
Outputs of similar age from EMBO Journal
#44
of 79 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,358,242 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 67th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 14,095 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 9.6. This one is in the 37th percentile – i.e., 37% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 220,612 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 69% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 79 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 37th percentile – i.e., 37% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
