AIDP Factor

What is AIDP factor?

Number of published papers in a year / Number of preparations received in a previous year x 100

For example,

A researcher published 2 papers acknowledging islets from AIDP in 2014 and he/she received 20 islet shipments in 2013, then AIDP factor in 2014 for the researcher is 10.0 (2/20 x 100)

Note: Journal ranking is not taken into consideration.  Some researchers may receive human islet from other programs in addition to AIDP, which is also not taken into consideration.
