The influential list is a publicly accessible database that ranks the world's top-cited scientists, offering a comprehensive look at their impact. Over 150 scientists from across the University of York are featured.
Professor Matthias Ruth, Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Research at the University of York, said: “This list provides a tangible overview of how our work here at York is contributing to the global research community. It is wonderful to see colleagues from across all three Faculties – Sciences, Social Sciences and Arts and Humanities – represented. I congratulate my colleagues for their achievements and their commitment to what it’s all for: curiosity-driven research which is changing our world for the better.”
The Stanford/Elsevier Top 2% Scientist Rankings list is based on citations from 2022, updated to the end of 2023 and uses metrics like h-index, co-authorship adjustments, and a composite citation score (c-score), which reflects a scientist’s influence rather than just their publication count. Scientists are ranked based on Scopus data, with the top 100,000 or those in the top 2% of their field included.
