Since news of COVID-19 first erupted early this year, scientists have been producing research around the virus at a rapid rate. Bibliometrics, a field that uses quantitative methods to analyze the research impact and quality of published works, provides invaluable insight during the pandemic, because it allows researchers to identify and study large-scale trends and patterns across the growing body of coronavirus research.
