This page only covers the 22,828 papers with at least one laboratory traced to this country, between 27 October 2025 and 18 August 2026. It is not the entire output of the country.
This is the country of the laboratory, never the nationality of individuals. A paper co-signed from several countries counts in each of them. Coverage is partial and the gap is not random: a researcher whose institution is unknown usually publishes little, which over-represents established labs.

Emerging signals
Phrases appearing markedly more often than usual in this country's papers. Because a national corpus is far smaller than the global one, the selection threshold is proportional to its volume: percentages are jumpier, and a term can rise on a handful of papers.

Across 69,649 papers with at least one lab located, i.e. 76% of the 91,354 papers fully processed between 27 October 2025 and 21 August 2026. 167 countries represented.
This is the country of the laboratory, never the nationality of individuals. A paper signed from several countries counts for each of them, so the shares add up to more than 100%. Coverage is partial and the gap is not random: a researcher whose institution is unknown usually publishes little, which over-represents established labs.
