studied Library and Information Science at the Humboldt University Berlin and wrote her Magister thesis as part of a project investigating the diversity of research fields using bibliometric methods. After graduating, she worked as head of library at the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences. She notably expanded the electronic services of the library, but also collaborated on bibliometric analyses for research evaluation of the Institute. She joined the iFQ team in June 2011.

A Case Study of the Epistemic Function of Citations - Implications for Citation-based Science Mapping. In W. Glänzel, S. Heeffer, P.-S. Chi, & R. Rousseau (Hrsg.), Proceedings of the 18th International Conference on Scientometrics & Informetrics (S. 1027-1032). Leuven: KU Leuven / International Society for Scientometrics and Informetrics (I.S.S.I.).
Abstract

The use of citations as indicators of topical relatedness of publications is common in the algorithmic mapping of the structure of science. References to source documents, however, may serve a variety of epistemic functions, and hence represent rather different dimensions of topical relatedness, such as the research methods used, the empirical objects studied, the theoretical resources build on, the research questions pursued, or the external motivation for and relevance of the work. In this case study, we explore the diversity in topical dimensions along which publications are linked in citation networks, by coding the epistemic function of in-text citations. [...]

Does Wikipedia Cover the Relevant Literature on Major Innovations Timely? An Exploratory Case Study of CRISPR/Cas9. Vortrag auf der Konferenz 18th International Conference on Scientometrics and Informetrics (ISSI 2021), International Society for Scientometrics and Informetrics, Leuven, Belgium.
Abstract

We analyze Wikipedia’s representation of the Nobel Prize winning CRISPR/Cas9 technology to explore to what extent and with what temporal dynamics Wikipedia cites well-acknowledged or highly cited literature. We use several matching heuristics to match publications from two publication corpora with the central Wikipedia CRISPR article. A combination of verbatim searches by title, DOI, and PMID is sufficient. The Wikipedia article references a substantial amount of articles that are part of our corpora, as well as literature that is not scientific. Delays in coverage show a dependence on the dynamics of both the field and the Wikipedia article itself
