Objective To analyze the research status of forensic medicine in China from 2010 to 2019, obtain the development trend of forensic medicine and explore the hotspots and research frontiers. Methods The forensic medical academic papers published on China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) database from 2010 to 2019 were collected. CiteSpace 5.7. R1, an information visualization analysis software, was used to analyze publication organizations, authors, keywords, and other elements. Results The majority of the research institutions were universities, provincial and ministerial scientific research and forensic institutions. Forensic pathology was still an important branch of forensic medicine and a popular research direction. The"polymorphism"and"Y chromosome"had been the research hotspots in recent years."Medical damage"and"standard"were the most novel studies. Conclusion In order to provide scientific basis and research direction for forensic research, this paper analyzes the cooperation network, research hotspots and research innovation in forensic research.

Teaching how to conduct productive research in a classroom setting is a challenge. This article reports on an attempt to scale up the research training in a class of 41 undergraduate and graduate students. The research topic, information aesthetics, covers information visualization and generative art. Seven teams were set up to conduct seven different projects within the topic, and several were able to produce quality research papers published or accepted by journals and conferences. The authors report on their approaches to teaching information aesthetics as a research topic, team set up, and team assessment as well as on the final results in terms of research output. The most important learning experiences in teaching this class were determining how to enable effective team work and maximize the students' research potential. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

Applied ecology is one of the most important scientific and technological tools for natural resources management and environment protection. Under the current situation of natural resource shortage, serious environmental pollution, and ecosystem degradation, understanding the theoretical basis, research methods and research hotspots of international studies on applied ecology is of great significance for consolidating the knowledge base, indicating the research direction, defining the strategic position of China's studies on applied ecology. Based on the principle of bibliometrics and information visualization software (CiteSpace and Carrot 2 ), we took two document datasets as research objects which were searched from Web of Science based on different search strategies in the field of international studies on applied ecology from 1980 to 2018. We analyzed the spatial and temporal distribution of the literature, the core research forces, the evolution and frontier trend of research hotspots from three dimensions, i.e. research carrier, research strength, and research content. Our results could reveal its evolutionary trajectory, research status and development trend and provide reference for future studies on applied ecology in China.
