About 364 Iranian reseachers have published over 30 articles each, in scientific journals approved by the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI). A faculty member of Bou-Ali University noted publishing such large number of articles in scientific journals approved by ISI shows that the country is making scientific achievments, ISNA reported. Mohammad Ali Zolfi-Gol, a chemistry professor, pointed out that about 1,000 Iranian scientists have over 10 articles each published in prestigious scientific journals. Minister of Science, Research and Technology has also said that the number of research articles published in ISI journals has now increased to 7,000 from the 5,000 before President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad took office.
