The Clarivate Analytics list identifies researchers ranking in the top 1% by citations for their field.
Now in its fifth year, the citation identifies influential researchers as determined by their peers around the globe – those who have consistently won recognition in the form of high citation counts over a decade.
Placement on the list is a significant achievement for those named. Listed researchers’ citation records position them in the very highest strata of influence and impact, with the list including 17 Nobel laureates, including two announced this year: James P. Allison (Physiology or Medicine), and William D. Nordhaus (Economic Sciences).
The Web of Science serves as the basis for regular listings of researchers whose citation records position them in the top 1% by citations for their field and year.
Annette Thomas, CEO of the Scientific & Academic Research group at Clarivate Analytics warmly congratulated the researchers on their appearance in this year’s list: “Congratulations to your distinguished group of researchers at FLEET. The advancement of scientific endeavor represents a critical activity for individual research institutions and entire nations. The Highly Cited Researchers 2018 list helps to identify the researchers who are having the greatest impact on the research community as measured by the rate at which their work is being cited by others and that contributes so greatly to extending the frontier and gaining knowledge and innovations for society – contributions that make the world healthier, safer, richer, and more sustainable.”
