Extraction and on line availability of indicators related to social responsibility, popularization and result prospection of research in nanotechnology in Brazil

Résumé En

Scriptlattes computational tool was used for extraction of performance indicators related to social responsibility, popularization and result prospection of research in nanotechnology in Brazil using as data source Plataforma Lattes and the CNPq Research Group Directory. Besides allowing for a quantitative evaluation of the bibliographic production on the matter, which used as base the number of published papers and book chapters, amongst other productions, the extractions have also allowed for the evaluation of indicators such as technological products, processes and techniques, related to the social responsibility in research, such as magazines and newspaper articles, linked to the popularization of Scientific results. Yet, the observation of indicators such as thesis and current research projects allowed the observation of prospective future results of current research in nanotechnology. Apart from the results related to the bibliographic productions, which can be found in several data basis, the tool makes available indicators in circular basis, which on turn, permit the prospect evaluation of future research results, as well as the evaluation of social responsibility and the popularization of research on the theme. The presented results may be replicated for any subject of interest, and may be used to guide future scientific research in the country.
