  • The author carried out his work along the following five lines: - The theoretical specification of such an information system and the type of science indicators included therein, in close interaction with potential users of the system. - Its technical realization, including the development of various types of –partly manual, partly automated– data entry processes. - The real application of the system to a particular case: the University of Navarra, a Spanish private university specializing in health sciences. - An analysis of the results in terms of their implications for the research performance at the University of Navarra. - A discussion of his empirical findings from the perspective of more general research issues in the field of quantitative science studies and research assessment. 50 life sciences departments at the University of Navarra constituted the object of the study. Data were collected from this university’s internal databases, -especially those on granted projects and on scientific personnel-, and from two major databases of scientific literature: the Web of Science published by Thomson Scientific (formerly the Institute for Scientific Information) and Scopus, compiled by Elsevier.
