6 EUROPE

7 Altogether, European microbiology appears to have remained unimpressed by the aforementioned changes of the last decades and, thus, has been successful in maintaining its high status among the European life science disciplines. This becomes even more obvious when comparing European microbiology to the rest of the world. The USA was considerably outcompeted by Europe s performance, which is not the case in many other life science fields. The same is true for Japan and Canada who this time lagged far behind Europe s number three, France. The five most-cited microbiology papers to have appeared between 1997 and 2008 with corresponding addresses in Europe clearly demonstrate the trend outlined earlier: all of them exclusively come from the field of microbial (meta- )genomics three complete genome sequences and two method papers about analysing sequence data from microorganisms.

50 Conclusions Science is growing rapidly There are more PhD in emerging countries And they are hard-working students BUT A difficulty remains to learn how to write The publishing field being dominated by Europe & America biases the expression of science toward our culture
