ISSI newsletter上报道了我获得Emerald/EFMD杰出博士研究奖的消息，截屏以作纪念

Dr. Yuxian Liu (Tongji University, Shanghai, China) obtained the 2011 Emerald/EFMD Outstanding Doctoral Research Award in the category Information Science. She received this award for her doctoral dissertation entitiled “The diffusion of scientific ideas in time and indicators for the description of this process”, which she wrote as a doctoral student of the University of Antwerp (Belgium). ISSI president Ronald Rousseau was her thesis advisor.

Commenting on this occasion she wrote “Obtaining this award reminds me of my learning experience: When I was teenager I announced to the world that I wanted to study abroad and obtain a doctoral degree. It seems magic that my dream of obtaining a doctoral degree abroad came true thirty years after I announced it. At a time when it seemed an impossibility”.

Yuxian Liu’s work has been published (or is accepted for) in the journal of Scientometrics, Journal of Informetrics, Journal of the American Society for information Science and Technology, Journal of Documentation and Information Processing & Management. In 2009 she wrote a short note on the h-index in the ISSI newsletter. She also gave an oral presentation at the 11^th ISSI conference in Madrid (2007). Although this older research dealt with the h-index, she moved on trying to use citation analysis as a means of tracing the development of scientific ideas.
