Abstract: The purpose of this study was to compare the results of the research work of specialized medical research centers and medical universities in Russia by evaluating the number of significant scientific products.The study included 20 largest medical universities in Russia according to the number of scientific and pedagogical staff and 22 scientific medical research centers (SMRC), formed by the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation. The largest medical universities and SMRC were ranked according to a number of bibliometric indicators (the number of publications, citations and Hirsch index values according to Scopus, Web of Science and the Scientific Electronic Library), with further comparison of the data obtained.Within the study, which included the indicators of all SMRC approved by the Ministry of Health, there was found out a correlation between the Hirsch RISC index and Scopus (Pearson Ratio 0.589 with p < 0.01). Our previous research led to the conclusion on the absence of such correlation for medical universities in Russia. There were also compared certain scientometric indicators of SMRC and medical universities in Russia. The results of the analysis show that both universities and SMRC produce a comparable amount of scientific products included into Scopus database.Despite the fact that the SMRC were financed to conduct scientific research and thus to make leaders of scientific directions, the universities’ scientific products, though insignificantly, exceed those of the SMRC in yield and demand.
