Evaluating Research Activity and NIH-Funding Among Academic Ophthalmologists Using Relative Citation Ratio
NIH funding is associated with higher research productivity and impact among US academic ophthalmologists as measured by <i>h-index</i> and RCR, which suggests that NIH funding may be a critical factor in enhancing scholarly contributions of ophthalmologists. These findings underscore the importance of continued investment in NIH funding to foster high-impact research within the field of ophthalmology.
