- Title
Time for change in Portuguese science.
- Abstract
Presents a letter to the editor discussing how there is an almost perfect positive relationship between scientific output and gross domestic product (GDP) in Western Europe. Suggestion that two countries (Ireland and Portugal) spoil the relationship; Suggestion that Ireland, wisely, shows intense scientific activity, unlike Portugal, which publishes three times less than would be expected for its GDP; How the situation in Portugal requires immediate action if the country is to be ready to face the next century in an increasingly competitive world, where science and technology provide the driving force.
