Abstract Summary
First comprehensive study of evolutionary medicine literature reveals steady growth since the 1990s, with strong research focus on drug resistance, infections, and cancer. However, key gaps exist in clinical translation and global health topics. Poor metadata labeling limits field visibility—researchers need better interdisciplinary collaboration and consistent publication tagging to advance evolutionary approaches in healthcare.
Why Brain? ðŸ§
First bibliometric analysis of evolutionary medicine reveals steady growth and high impact, but identifies critical gaps in clinical translation, global collaboration, and database visibility that must be addressed to advance the field.
