EigenfactorAn academic research project co-founded in January 2007 by Carl Bergstrom and Jevin West, and sponsored by the West Lab at the Information School and the Bergstrom Lab in the Department of Biology at the University of Washington.
The system uses recent advances in network analysis to develop novel methods for evaluating the influence of scholarly periodicals, for mapping the structure of academic research, and for helping researchers navigate the scholarly literature. The project leaders are committed to broadly disseminating their research findings and technological developments, while respecting the confidentiality of the data sources they use.
