Biotech Science News is a life science networking site that ranks and reports, the people, organizations, news, and the terms generating the most impact, accomplishment, activity, and interest in the Life Science community.
The Biotech Science News "Rank" number for Life Science researchers and executives is directly related to their "Accomplishment" scores and "Popularity" scores. These scores are bases on both invited speaking engagements at life science meetings and lectures plus the posting of professional activities that cover everything from, grant support to peer reviewed papers, and the viewing of their professional profiles of speaking, publishing, grants, and clinical trial activity by their mentors, peers, collaborators, associates and buddies, ("Circle of Consequence") and other members of the Life Science community. (see listing below).
Life science researchers and executives can affect their "Accomplishment Scores" by registering to insure that their BiotechScienceNews profile correctly reflects their speaking activity and level, plus their posts of, abstracts defended, honors and awards, clinical trial activity, grant support, patents pending, editorial positions etc, reviewed papers etc, pre/non-peer review papers, and white papers. Through BiotechScienceNews, all of this information also becomes available to the world-wide life science community.
In all cases, email addresses supplied to BiotechScienceNews remain hidden unless specifically opened to the public by the BiotechScienceNews registrant.
BiotechScienceNews uses both the accomplishment and popularity scores (see below) of individual life science researchers and executives to establish both their rank and popularity as People of Consequence and their affiliations with "Organizations of Consequence".
