Seventeen Scholars affiliated with the School of Data Science (SDSC) are recognized in Stanford’s List of World’s Top 2% Scientists

We are proud to share that seventeen faculty members affiliated with SDSC have been recognized as Top 2% of the World’s Most Cited Scholars by the Stanford-Elsevier indicators. The lists were released in October 2023.

The selection ranked the top 100,000 scientists by citation score (with and without self-citations) or a percentile rank of 2% or above in their specialty field. The list is based on two sets of categorizations. Career-long consists of data running up to the end of 2022; whereas Single Year data pertained to citations received during calendar year 2022. For more details, please visit https://elsevier.digitalcommonsdata.com/datasets/btchxktzyw/4.

The ranking is based on the “Updated science-wide author databases of standardized citation indicators”, compiled and announced annually by Professor John P.A. Ioannidis and his team of notable researchers from Stanford University. It identifies scientists and social scientists who have demonstrated significant and broad influence, reflected in the publication of multiple papers frequently cited by their peers during the last decade. Scientists are classified into 22 scientific fields and 174 sub-fields. The rankings are calculated based on standardised information of citations, h-index, co-authorship-adjusted hm-index, citations to papers in different authorship positions, and a composite indicator.
