Fredrik Åström's general research area is scholarly communication and bibliometrics within the field of information studies, with strong ties to science and technology studies as well as research policy. The PhD thesis work analyzed the social and intellectual development of library and information science as a field of research. The main focus of the post-doctoral research has been on using bibliometric methods for mapping and visualizing research fields. Åström is currently leading a research project with the purpose of mapping research evaluation practices, as well as investigating the effect of the use of bibliometric based performance indicators in research evaluation on scientists/scholars, as well as on the science system.
