Introduction: The use of evaluation to illuminate scientific innovation

Gretchen Jordan and Brian Zuckerman

Research Evaluation, 2008, vol. 17, issue 4, 235-236

Abstract: This issue has an edited selection from over 50 papers presented to the Research Technology and Development Topical Interest Group of the American Evaluation Association during the AEA 2007 conference. The six papers in this collection fall into two subgroups. The first three take as their subject evaluation tools that assist researchers and research managers in identifying priorities, objectives, and the choice of which science to fund. The other three focus on evaluating the results of scientific progress, asking, ‘Are collaboration and networks proving effective in bringing together stakeholders in the process of doing innovative science and in translating results into use?’ Copyright , Beech Tree Publishing.
