The paper deals with the problems of detection and objective assessment of the activities of scientific schools. On the example of the domestic herniological surgical school, objective criteria for the correspondence of scientific teams to the status of a "scientific school" are proposed. A method is proposed for tracking the activities of research teams as scientific schools based on publication activity reflected in the leading international citation indices and using bibliometric mapping methods.
