Appraisal of scientific and technological achievements in the past, present and future / 中华医学科研管理杂志

ABSTRACT

Appraisal of scientific and technological achievements is a kind of evaluation that have played an important role in the classification and promotion of research outcome.However,problem of non-normative practice has arisen out of the appraisal process.This is because it not only assesses the research outcome but also is closely related with the interests of the researchers.Introduction of third-party evaluation into the appraisal of scientific achievements is a new attempt that has been proved effective.Key steps in the appraisal includes the final evaluation of project,construction of the pool of experts,third-party monitor and double-blind review system,and most importantly,unbinding of personal interests with the appraisal.
