Research Landscape Atlas

What becomes visible when research funding, publications, topics, and institutions are examined together?

A reproducible analysis that connects research funding, publication activity, topics, institutions, and scientific impact.

The problem

Scientific fields are often described through isolated papers, grant totals, or expert impressions. Those views are useful, but they make it difficult to see how investment, output, and attention move together.

The approach

I built a local-first pipeline that cleans public research data, records decisions, groups work into interpretable topics, and produces tables and figures that can be audited before they are used in an argument.

What I learned

The analysis is only as trustworthy as its definitions. Reproducibility is not a final polish step. It has to shape how the data is gathered, cleaned, grouped, and presented from the beginning.
