The scientific advances that underpin economic growth and human
health would not be possible without research investments. Yet
demonstrating the impact of research programs is a challenge,
especially in areas that span disciplines, industrial sectors, and
encompass both public and private sector activity. All areas of
research are under pressure to demonstrate benefits from federal
funding of research. This exciting and innovative study
demonstrates new methods and tools to trace the impact of federal
research funding on the structure of research, and the subsequent
economic activities of funded researchers. The case study is food
safety research, which is critical to avoiding outbreaks of
disease. The authors make use of an extraordinary new data
infrastructure and apply new techniques in text analysis. Focusing
on the impact of US federal food safety research, this book
develops vital data-intensive methodologies that have a real world
application to many other scientific fields.
