27 PSU Researchers Featured in Stanford’s World’s Top 2% Scientists List

In October 2022, Stanford University included 9 researchers from the university for their long-term professional impact and another 26 researchers for their scientific impact during the past year in two lists that ranked the world’s top 2% of scientists.

The database, created by experts at Stanford, is based on data from Elsevier’s Scopus database. The database includes the top 2% of scientists in 22 scientific fields and 176 subfields and provides standardized information on citations, h-index, coauthors hip-adjusted hm-index, citations to papers in different authorship positions, and a composite indicator.

The list can be distinguished into two categories: career-long achievements and single-year achievements:

● Stanford’s World’s Top 2% Scientists for Career-Long Achievements – This category ranks scientists all over the globe for their scientific outputs from the beginning of their careers until 2022.
● Stanford’s World’s Top 2% Scientists for Single-Year Achievements – This category ranks scientists all over the globe for their scientific outputs in 2022.

Previously, 16 researchers from Prince Sultan University were featured in one or both categories in 2021 and only 6 researchers made it in one or both categories in 2020.
