• Diversity and network coherence as indicators of interdisciplinarity: case studies in bionanoscience (2009, background): “For example, in nanotechnology, coarsegrained studies tend to emphasize the interdisciplinary nature of the field (Meyer and Persson 1998; Leydesdorff and Zhou 2007), whereas lower level studies suggest that, below the re-labelling, genuine knowledge integration is occurring at a slower pace (Schumm”
• China's emerging presence in nanoscience and nanotechnology: A comparative bibliometric study of several nanoscience ‘giants’ (2007, methodology): “The search strategy was determined based on some earlier studies (Braun et al., 1997; Glänzel et al., 2003; Schummer, 2004).”
• The Emergence of China as a Leading Nation in Science. Research Policy, 35(1), 2006, 83-104. (2006, background): “Nevertheless, journals with “nano” in their titles may be a better source in terms of providing information in nano-papers (Schummer, 2004).”
• Fundamentals of Information Studies: Understanding Information and Its Environment, Second Edition (2009, background): ““Nanoscience & nanotechnology” can be considered as an interesting case in point: within the policy arena this research domain was constructed as a critical and highly interdisciplinary field (Kostoff, 2004; 2007), but this interdisciplinarity has remained controversial in the various mapping effort”
• Search Regimes and the Industrial Dynamics of Science (2008, background): “closer look reveals that disciplinary bases of knowledge are not at all eroded (Meyer and Persson 1998; Schummer 2004; Rafols and Meyer 2006).”
