Figure 1
Articles by year citing FIC support. The decreases in publication output for 2016 and 2017 were due to indexing lags at the time this figure was generated, and not to decreases in FIC productivity.

Articles with FIC support per author-affiliated region per year.
Figure 3
Citation impact of FIC supported articles, 1980–2014. The H-Index is the number of publications in a given data set that have received that same number of citations or more. The FIC Institutional H-Index of 237 indicates that FIC support was cited in 237 publications that have each been cited 237 times or more.
