ABSTRACT:       Recent studies have reported on a steady decline of
Sweden's relative citation impact in almost all science fields, above all
in the life sciences. The authors attempt to shed light on the observed
decline in Swedish neuroscience through a detailed citation analysis at
different level of aggregations. Thus national citation data are de
composed to the institutional, departmental and individual level. Both,
the decomposition of national science indicators and changing
collaboration patterns in Swedish neuroscience reveal interesting details
on the 'anatomy' of a decline.
