[pakgrid] Re: Productive Scientists

 

One gentleman produced 82 papers in 2011. This averages up to two papers in one week or roughly one paper in 3 days.

This includes the time to research a topic, do experimentation, get results, write up the findings, proof reading, quality assurance, discuss the results with colleagues, formatting...

How is this possible to do all these things in 3 days and then repeat the whole process 82 times in one year?

I believe quality has been ignored altogether while producing the list.

Best regards
