RI-IWEAR's Top 2% Scientists in the global list


Seventeen RI-IWEAR members were recognised as the top 2% of scientists in the world in the year 2021. The report was released by a team of experts led by Prof. John Ioannidis of Stanford University and the latest version was published on 10 October 2022. Scientists are classified into 22 scientific fields and 176 sub-fields. This ranking identifies the top scholars in their speciality whose publications are most frequently cited by other authors for career-long and updated to end-of-2021. The publicly available database of over 100,000 top scientists provides standardised information on citations, h-index, co-authorship adjusted hm-index, citations to papers in different authorship positions, and a composite indicator. The report can be downloaded from Elsevier.

Congratulations to our colleagues on their high ranking and impact in 2021! This recognition demonstrates RI-IWEAR’s influence in multiple disciplines and signifies our dedication to conducting world-class research in wearable technology.
