Abstract
Abstract This article discusses the rationale for creating historiographs of scholarly topics using a new program called HistCite ™, which produces a variety of analyses to aid the historian identify key events (papers), people (authors), and journals in a field. By creating a genealogic profile of the evolution, the program aids the scholar in evaluating the paradigm involved.

Procedures are described for measuring protein in solution or after precipitation with acids or other agents, and for the determination of as little as 0.2 gamma of protein.
NatureInitial sequencing and analysis of the human genome
24,579 Citations2001Eric S. Lander, Lauren Linton +250 more
The results of an international collaboration to produce and make freely available a draft sequence of the human genome are reported and an initial analysis is presented, describing some of the insights that can be gleaned from the sequence.
American DocumentationBibliographic coupling between scientific papers
2,765 Citations1963M. M. Kessler
The population of papers under study was ordered into groups that satisfy the stated criterion of interrelation and an examination of the papers that constitute the groups shows a high degree of logical correlation.
Journal of the American Society for Information ScienceVisualizing science by citation mapping
577 Citations1999Henry Small
An effort to visualize these data using advanced virtual reality software is described, and the creation of document pathways through the map is seen as a realization of Bush's (1945) associative trails.
NatureHigh constitutive activity of native H3 receptors regulates histamine neurons in brain
463 Citations2000Séverine Morisset‐Lopez, A. Rouleau +7 more
It is shown that constitutive activity of native H3 receptors is present in rodent brain and that it controls histaminergic neuron activity in vivo, and inverse agonists may find therapeutic applications, even in the case of diseases involving non-mutated receptors expressed at normal levels.
THE USE OF CITATION DATA IN WRITING THE HISTORY OF SCIENCE

The study confirmed 65% (28 of 43) of the historical dependencies in the Asimov network by corresponding linkages established by citations, and found 31 citation connections which did not correspond to any historical dependencies noted in The Genetic Code.
