ABSTRACT
Altmetric Score (AS) is a novel measure of publication impact that is calculated through an automated algorithm by the number of mentions on numerous social media websites including Twitter and Facebook. It may be advantageous to traditional bibliometrics in the context of analyzing medical student research, as AS peaks relatively quickly and measures qualitative data. The authors hypothesize that dermatology matriculants who graduated from higher-ranked medical schools published more articles with greater impact (i.e. higher AS) than those from lower-ranked institutions.
