The 2023 Highly Cited Researchers list is based on the number of highly cited papers published during an 11-year period from January 2012 to December 2022. The selection methodology for the Highly Cited Researchers list was developed by bibliometric experts and data scientists at the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI™) at Clarivate, using citation data from the Web of Science™. It covers 188,500 highly cited papers across all subject fields.
Furthermore, among the graduates and postdoctoral fellows independently trained by our college, 8 scholars have appeared on the Highly Cited Researchers list. We extend our warm congratulations to all of them!
