Science Citation Index (SCI)

The Science Citation Index (SCI) is a database that tracks and records scientific research articles published in reputable journals. It provides information on how often these articles are cited by other researchers, reflecting their influence and importance in their fields. Scientists, universities, and organizations use SCI to find relevant research, gauge the impact of specific studies, and identify key experts. Essentially, it helps measure the reach and significance of scientific work through citation data, facilitating the dissemination and recognition of valuable research across scientific disciplines.
