Dozens of RIT researchers included on Stanford University’s list of the world’s top 2% of scientists
Numerous Rochester Institute of Technology faculty, professors emeriti, and postdoctoral researchers were recognized as top-cited scientists in their fields, according to a Stanford University study published by Elsevier.
The study, published annually, aims to identify the world’s top 2 percent of scientists using standardized information on citations, h-index, co-authorship adjusted hm-index, citations to papers in different authorship positions, and a composite indicator. The study produces lists for career-long and single recent year impacts. Scientists are classified into 22 scientific fields and 174 sub-fields. Calculations were performed using all Scopus author profiles as of Sept. 1, 2022.
