From: Scientific rewards for biomedical specialization are large and persistent
Increase in impact estimated for a one \(\sigma\) increase in specialization as a function of career age, for two different publishing rates. Low publishing rate is estimated at the 12.5th percentile (middle of the first quartile) of papers per year. High publishing rate is estimated at the 87.5th percentile (middle of the fourth quartile) of papers per year. The shaded envelope of each line is the \(99.9\%\) confidence interval. Based on 29,197 unique biomedical researchers for a total of 213,019 researcher-time window observations
