AAU is the first of the Danish research institutions to initiate a model to replace the discontinued BFI system. The BFI system had the advantage of being transparent and more or less out of the hands of managers regarding where the income went—it was almost bottom-up funding based on the individual researcher's publications. The new system is less transparent, does not relate tto individuals, and it is much more in the hands of managers where money goes. No doubt they will distribute funds fairly and equitably and with the good sense to protect and prioritize research freedom. See (Stoustrup et al. 2023). Stoustrup, J., Jensen, W., Kristensen, T. N., Larsen, B., Müller, C., & Nielsen, T., et al. (2023). AAU forskningsindikator: Til fremme af AAU's videnskabelige publicering og impact, samarbejde, synlighed, åbenhed og innovation.

"The new AAU Research Indicator retains the good elements of the previous Danish Bibliometric Research Indicator, but the new model is also forward-looking and fits into a recognizable international framework for research evaluation and advancement where 'Open Science' is a key element along with the standard indicators, Rector Per Michael Johansen says."

"A scientific study from Aarhus University shows that the Danish Bibliometric Research Indicator was perceived by many as a control and management tool that created stress and a poor working environment. The study showed that the more a department had adopted the Danish Bibliometric Research Indicator, the poorer the working environment and the more stressed the researchers."
