Stanford University has recently updated a database that represented top-cited scientists worldwide†. We are very excited to share the news with you that a number of our UBSN Management Committee professors and a User Group member have ranked among the world's top 2% most-cited scientists.
The Stanford research team retrieved Scopus publication data up to end-of-2023 provided by Elsevier and standardised citation data using metrics, e.g., h-index, co-authorship hm-index. The calculation resulted in a list of 100,000 top scientists across the world from 22 scientific fields and 174 sub-fields.
Congratulations on the outstanding achievement.
