I just learned that I have been awarded the 2009 Thomson Reuters Doctoral Dissertation Proposal Scholarship by ASIS&T. I’m thrilled!
Here is the proposal I submitted (shorter than the version I defended with my dissertation committee in January 2009).
I will be presenting a paper at the Symposium on Informetrics and Scientometrics. The Symposium is an ASIS&T and ISSI pre-conference on November 7, 2009 in Vancouver Canada. The program is online.
My paper is a pilot study of my final thesis analysis. It uses a smaller dataset and fewer variables than my complete Aim 3, but demonstrates the overall methodology.
We were invited to submit the paper to a special issue of the Journal of Informetrics, so keep your fingers crossed! I’ll post the paper full-text online when I can.
