Researchers from the ϳԹ have been strongly represented in prestigious list of top global scientists
More than 30 academics from the ϳԹ are among the top two per cent of the most cited scholars in the world.
The influential list, , is a publicly accessible database that ranks the world's scientists, offering a comprehensive look at their impact.
The ranking methodology was developed by Stanford University professor, John Ioannidis, and is based on citations to the end of 2023. It 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.
Professor Jeremy Howells, Deputy Vice-Chancellor for Research, Innovation and External Relations, said: “Our presence on the list is a strong reflection of our identity as a world-leading research institution, and I am incredibly proud to see so many academics mentioned.
“Our students are taught by many of these staff who are leaders in their field, which means they are exposed to world-leading and internationally influential research.”
ϳԹ academics work closely with business, industry and the public sector to solve local, national and global challenges across science, technology, humanities, business and creative industries.
ϳԹwas ranked third of all modern UK universities for research power in the Times Higher Education Research Excellence Framework (REF) rankings.
