Figure 1
Upwards trend in the number of published SAS papers in the field of structural biology over the last 15 years. The results are displayed in absolute (main graph) and relative (inset) figures. The survey was performed with a search of the ISI Web of KnowledgeSM publications database. For further comparison (not included in the above diagram), the number of papers with contributions from electron microscopy (EM) is almost four times the number of SAS publications in 2005, whereas a decade ago it was eight times the number of SAS publications. Moreover, the overall contributions of EM to structural biology papers decreased from 4% (in 1995) to 3% (in 2005). |
