- Abstract
- The number of publications in biomedicine and life sciences
- has rapidly grown over the last decades,
- with over 1.5 million papers now published every year.
- This makes it difficult to
- keep track of new scientific works and
- to have an overview of the evolution of the field as a whole.
- Here we
- present a 2D atlas of the entire corpus of biomedical literature, and
- argue that it provides
- a unique and
- useful overview
- of the life sciences research.
- We base our atlas on the abstract texts of
- 21 million English articles from the PubMed database.
- To embed the abstracts into 2D, we use
- a large language model PubMedBERT, combined with
- t-SNE tailored to handle samples of our size.
- We use our atlas to study
- the emergence of the Covid-19 literature,
- the evolution of the neuroscience discipline,
- the uptake of machine learning, and
- the distribution of gender imbalance in academic authorship.
- Furthermore, we present an interactive web version of our atlas that
- allows easy exploration and
- will enable further insights and facilitate future research.
