The share of scientific publications in France among the world's top-cited 10% in biomedical engineering shows a declining trend from 2024 to 2028, with values dropping from 8.48% to 7.97%. Over the next four years, the year-on-year decrease averages around 1.5%, indicating a gradual reduction in France's impact within this field. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) reflects this decline at a negative rate over the five-year period. In 2023, France stood close to the 2024 forecast, maintaining a consistent level before the anticipated decline.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Emerging research areas within biomedical engineering that might shift France's focus and impact.
- Increased collaboration with international institutions to leverage diverse expertise and enhance citation impact.
- Governmental and institutional policies promoting innovation and research investment in biomedical engineering.
