Our research questions relates to the regional production of science and the role of academic R&D expenditures on regional scientific output. The results show that money affects the production of scientific results in regions. On average, we found different impacts and lags of R&D expenditure according to the level of regional development. Our findings also suggest that scientific specialization is a significant factor affecting scientific outputs, although its effects differ across disciplines and regions.}, organization = {Support for this research was provided in part from the Junta de Andalucía (Grant P08-SEJ-03981).}, publisher = {Taylor & Francis Group}, keywords = {Scientific production}, keywords = {R&D expenditure in the higher education sector}, keywords = {Europe-15 regions}, keywords = {Regional scientific specialization}, title = {Regional scientific production and specialization in Europe.
