Scientific Quality
Two citation-quality metrics: RCR (Relative Citation Ratio, field- and year-normalised; 1 = average) and SJR (SCImago Journal Rank, journal prestige score). All ATMP shows both side by side; sections below are switchable via the metric selector.
RCR (Relative Citation Ratio): a field- and year-normalised citation score developed by the US National Institutes of Health. RCR = 1.0 means a paper was cited exactly as often as the average paper in the same field and publication year; RCR = 2.0 means twice the field average. RCR scores are available only for papers published up to 2022. Approximately 93% of eligible papers have an RCR score; papers without scores are excluded from distributions, which may slightly overstate typical impact levels. SJR (SCImago Journal Rank): a journal-level prestige score based on citation quality received by that journal; all papers in the same journal and year share the same SJR value. Not all papers have a matched SJR (conference proceedings and preprints lack journal metadata). Source: RCR from NIH iCite via Dimensions; SJR from SCImago Journal Rankings, matched by ISSN and publication year. Extracted May 2026.

Metric selector: sections below
RCR = Relative Citation Ratio (field-normalised, papers up to 2022). SJR = SCImago Journal Rank (journal prestige, all years).
Citation quality distribution: Fundamental ATMP technology domains
Each panel is one Fundamental technology domain plus an All Fundamental summary. Curves compare the World (excluding Sweden, grey) and Sweden (gold). Dashed lines mark median, 90th, and 99th percentiles with annotated values. Sample size (n papers) is shown inside each panel. Domain classification: F1 = DNA tailoring, F2 = Identity and Fate reprogramming, F3 = Delivery, F4 = Sensing and Control systems. A paper assigned to multiple domains appears in multiple panels. See the All ATMP chart above for full metric definitions. Analysis: Yotam Sofer, House of Innovation, Stockholm School of Economics.
Citation quality distribution: Enabling ATMP technology domains
Each panel is one Enabling technology domain plus an All Enabling summary. Domain classification: E1 = Phenotyping, E2 = Bioprocessing, E3 = Preclinical modelling, E4 = Manufacturing. A paper assigned to multiple domains appears in multiple panels. Analysis: Yotam Sofer, House of Innovation, Stockholm School of Economics.
