Abstract

Crowdsourcing has been widely adopted in many fields, but there is no study on summarizing how crowdsourcing applies to public health. Applying bibliometric method, this paper explores the time-scope, country and institution, published journals, emerging trends, and citation cluster analysis of crowdsourcing applying to public health. The results show that American scholars lead in the crowdsourcing application research; research object of crowdsourcing application has been gradually diversified and crowdsourcing is widely used to analyze the issues such as health communication, preventive medicine and epidemiology, etc.
