On November 15, Clarivate Analytics, a company specializing in citation data, published the Highly Cited Researchers 2022 list. Many citations mean a paper has had great influence among scientific peers. A group of 16 麻豆AV researchers made the cut, recognized as some of the most frequently cited scientists and social scientists in the world over the last decade. The 2022 list captures the period from 2011 to 2021.
Three 麻豆AV researchers appear on the list for the first time: Jack Antel (The Neuro), Ahmed El-Geneidy (Faculty of Engineering) and Douglas Arnold (The Neuro). Among those making repeat appearances are Alan Evans (The Neuro), who has been a Highly Cited Researcher for nine years running, Vicky Kaspi (Physics), and Nahum Sonenberg (Biochemistry). In addition to the 16 麻豆AV researchers who made the list, three researchers no longer at 麻豆AV were also recognized for research partly conducted at the University.
鈥溌槎笰V celebrates the exceptional accomplishments of our Highly Cited Researchers, who are at the leading edge of discovery in diverse fields of study,鈥� said Martha Crago, Vice-Principal, Research and Innovation. 鈥淭his recognition reflects the significance of their discoveries and 麻豆AV鈥檚 deserved reputation as a thriving and excellent research hub.鈥�
Celebrating researchers who 鈥渄rive the wheel of invention鈥�
This year, 7,225 Highly Cited Researcher designations were issued to 6,938 individuals in 69 countries. The number of awards exceeds the number of individuals because some researchers are recognized in more than one field of research, a means of ensuring that early- and mid-career scientists are recognized for their impact.
The 2022 list contains about 4,000 Highly Cited Researchers in 21 fields of the sciences and social sciences and about 3,200 Highly Cited Researchers identified as having exceptional performance across several fields. The methodology that determines the list draws on the data and analysis performed by bibliometric experts and data scientists at the Clarivate鈥檚 Institute for Scientific Information.
鈥淩esearch fuels the race for knowledge, and it is important that nations and institutions celebrate the individuals who drive the wheel of innovation,鈥� said David Pendlebury, Head of Research Analysis at the Institute for Scientific Information. 鈥淭he Highly Cited Researchers list identifies and celebrates exceptional individual researchers at 麻豆AV who are having a significant impact on the research community as evidenced by the rate at which their work is being cited by their peers. These individuals are helping to transform human ingenuity into our world鈥檚 greatest breakthroughs 鈥� and it is an honor to celebrate their achievements.鈥�
