China has 5 times more population than US. This is still not really impressive.

Cope with what, that you're not even top 10 in papers per capita?
You don't need to cope just invest more in the public education system and actually incentivise people to study by financing their studies
It's not that hard, you're way above most countries already, you just need to redirect some of the money that goes to """defense"""

In India the ruling people are high castes. People of specific communities excelling while majority of pajeeet country playing with poopoo. I wonder what our per capita would look like if we only counted non-pajeeet higher castes who form small % of population but are responsible for 100% of civilization.

All meme shit

I don’t give a shit

And that's counting all the foreigners you scoop up from other universities lmao.

Papers and studies in China have an extremely low replication rate. Same case with many non-western countries in your pic.
Benjamin Morales
Quality of Chinese papers is very low tho, it's what /sci/ told me

Per capita papers is a brainlet take. Its like saying when fighting a war the per capita soldiers matter than the actual size. Scientific progress is a bulk phemenon. It moves at once. You don't need everyone to be a good scientist like you need everyone to be liberate. So it's not a per capita one. All it took was Einstein, Bohr, Heisenberg, Pauli, Schrödinger, Planck, Feynmamn, Fermi, Dirac and Neumann to propel the boundary of physics into the nuclear and quantum age. Thats right. Those 10 people did more to the world that all scientists combined today.
That said, most of the cutting edge research is still being done in US and the West in general. The Chinese have done a few impressive things, but even then, some of the best Chinese researchers end up in the West.
People talk about China's artificial sun, but the US recently transplanted a pig heart into a human without killing him, the US launched the world's largest telescope, now they're trying to regrow amputated frog limbs and finally transition that process to humans restoring lives of amputees. Such kind of achievements are hard to ignore. Even if you hate the US, you'd have to admit they're still #1 in science.

why people are so obsessed with publishing? It has to be one of the whitest things to be obsessed with

All I see is how pathetic India is... Sirs please

Most papers are useless though and chinese are over 4x more than americans.
Landon Robinson
Ughh, this image completely BTFOs Chinx, what are you talking about?
Jace Collins
we're the smartest lol
Jacob White
if you only counted non-jewish white Americans the output would also be pretty dismal.

Australia is an academic powerhouse. Pretty neat :) Many famous mathematicians, physicists, medical researchers, chemists, engineers from Australia.

what %age of those things were done by white Americans tho?

French Ariane 5 launched it with such a precision that it allowed it a few more years of operation.

>Chinese "papers"
I've had to do with them at the university. Chinese papers are usually not worth the paper they're printed on.

Jews have an IQ of 95 and aren't even the highest earnings minority, the Indians are.
Christopher Hall
Them and India got a billion people and we’ve got something like a third of that. Take a look at the per capitas of Australia and the Netherlands. They’re mogging all of us.

>need a publishing to get into a good post grad
>need a publishing to get into a masters program
>research productivity for grants is measured by how many papers are produced by the individual, not by references
Most people hate research. 90% of the papers are garbage filler made by undergrads so their future careers don't get crippled
Kevin Hall
>the Indians are
It’s insane that their country’s average IQ is like 76 and all the Indians here are like the top 0.1% of their country
Carson Sullivan
Yeah, says a lot about giving proper infrastructure and education.
