hi folks
imagine a prof in the sciences, what is the typical publication rate for the average to good Prof over a lifetime? like, we would expect a pub rate for older profs to be higher than newer profs, cause by then we would expect them to have their own lab and grad students, post-docs working under them right?
so can anyone guesstimate a timeline publication rate for the average prolific prof?
e.g.
Age
18-25 (1-2 pubs here - undergrad to masters)
25-30 (2-3 pubs - PhD)
30-35 (3-4 postdocking)
35-45 (2/year, tenuring)
45-55 (3/year PI)
55+ (4/year?)
anyone care to guess?
