round table
10:00-11:15am – RoundTable 1
RELEVANT INDICATORS: AREAS, USES,
ORGANISATION
➡️ The
expectations of TGIR :
Publimetrics Report, and Survey 2020 :
Key ideas (D. Egret & R. Fabre)
➡️ Objective: Guide and Prepare the choice of national Indicators
Practices
from one TGIR : Pascal MORIN, Flotte Océanographique: Activity
and Impact Indicators
Research
advances: Traceability of research outcomes (Patrice
BELLOT, CNRS, Marseille),
An
example from Industry : Build
it and they will come : SOLEIL synchrotron (Andrew PLUME, ICSR-Elsevier)
Round
Table Discussion with Directors of TGIRs
Pause
11:30-12:45am –
RoundTable 2
A SHARED GUIDE OF RESULTS INDICATORS?
Publimetrics Report: towards a Guide to the uses of metrics (D.
Egret & R. Fabre)
➡️
Steps for a first frame :
- A
French-German and European project (Joachim SCHÖPFEL: Publimetrics F/D - A Survey
involving German TGIR; ERC nomenclature; ESFRI)
- Identifying Research Fronts in the Web of Science: From
metrics to meaning (Martin SZOMSZOR, Institute for Scientific Information,
Clarivate)
➡️ Towards
a List of Specifications?
Methods for preparing a guide to the uses of indicators :
Jean DAILLANT (SOLEIL), & Navin ALAHARI,
Directeur du GANIL
Discussion
prepared with TGIRs: SOLEIL, GANIL, Sébastien OLIVEAU (Progedo),
Gilbert CAMOIN (ECORD/IODP)
LUNCH
1:45-3:00pm
– RoundTable 3
THE USE OF METRICS: WHAT SERVICES FOR THE
FUTURE?
➡️ Current
practices and examples of TGIR: recent developments in the analysis of
scientific results
Presentation
moderated by RF & DE, with examples of TGIR having started using
indicators: IRAM, GANIL, GENCI, SOLEIL
➡️ Discussion: Current international and European practices: international
experiences (Nicolas ALAMANOS, CEA)
Research
advances:
New
directions of research for the analysis of science (Guillaume CABANAC,
IRIT, Univ. Toulouse).
Relevant
Impact Indicators for Science: What can we do with Text Mining? (George Tsatsaronis,
Elsevier, Vice President Data Science RCO).
Pause
Thierry COULHON, Président du Haut Conseil de l’Évaluation de la Recherche et de l’Enseignement Supérieur (HCÉRES)
A
roadmap for a shared strategy:
➡️ A Working Group to select shared indicators and prepare a User Guide.
➡️ A Franco-German survey on science indicator policies.
3:45pm – End
