description Research output is widely recognized as a key indicator of productivity and a measure of the status of a nation’s research activity. This bibliometric analysis examined the research productivity of the Department of Neurosciences at the University of the Philippines Manila, focusing on publications and citations across the divisions of adult neurology, pediatric neurology, and neurosurgery. A total of 518 studies were identified, showing a significant growth in publications over the past decade, particularly in international journals. The most common research topics included movement disorders and stroke. X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism is a prominent focus of movement disorder research. While adult neurologists contributed the largest volume of publications, pediatric neurologists had the highest citation impact per study. Collaborative efforts, both locally and internationally, have been instrumental in publishing in high-impact journals. The findings underscore the need for further expansion of research initiatives, enhanced funding, and strategic collaboration to address gaps in underrepresented areas like genetics, headache, and neurotoxicology.
