CIRS research citation network

About the citation network

The graph above links 4,799 papers in CIRS Nexus through 12,378 citations between them, published from 1961 to 2026. Each line is one paper citing another paper in the corpus, so clusters show research on CIRS, mold, mycotoxins, endotoxins and other biotoxins that builds on itself, and the most-cited papers are the ones that later work in this field returns to most.
