Junior biomedical researchers have long assumed that their hirings and promotions depend significantly on the amount of their published work. People responsible for making hiring and promotion decisions in the biomedical research field, however, are influenced much more by the overall impact that a candidate's scientific publications have on his or her field than by the number of those publications.
The information above, if accurate, argues most strongly against which of the following claims?

The information above, if accurate, argues most strongly against which of thefollowing claims? A. Even biomedical researchers who are just beginning their careers areexpected already to have published articles of major significance to the field. B. Contributions to the field of biomedical research are generally consideredto be significant only if the work is published. C. The potential scientific importance of not-yet-published work is sometimestaken into account in decisions regarding the hiring or promotion of biomedicalresearchers. D. People responsible for hiring or promoting biomedical researchers canreasonably be expected to make a fair assessment of the overall impact of a candidate'spublications on his or her field. E. Biomedical researchers can substantially increase their chances of promotionby fragmenting their research findings so that they are published in severaljournals instead of one
