Is the amount of publications one gets based on the scientists willingness to get you in on the tail end of publications?
That may sound confusing, what I am trying to say is... Are there some scientists which will put you down as like the 4th author just to give you some publications and are there some that wont let you in on a publication unless you work your ass to the bone on it.
So some dude may have 14 pubs working for this one guy who puts people in on them like giving out candy while some guy might ave 2 pubs and work twice as hard.
Does this take place? Is what matters hard work doing research or which guy your researching with?
Sorry if this post is pretty unclear.
Thanks
