Ron Brown, Frank Cucinotta, Jeffrey Cummings, and Gabriele Wulf (all Integrated Health Sciences) have been listed on Stanford University’s annual report of the top-cited researchers from across the globe based on the work completed during a single year, and throughout the person’s career. The most recent list published Oct. 10, 2022,  in PLOS Biology.

The publicly available database of top-cited scientists provides standardized information about citations, h-index, co-authorship adjusted hm-index, citations to papers in different authorship positions and a composite indicator (c-score). Scientists are classified into 22 scientific fields and 176 sub-fields. The selection is based on the top 100,000 scientists by c-score (with and without self-citations) or a percentile rank of 2% or above in the sub-field. The career-long database includes 195,605 scientists, and the single recent year dataset includes 200,409 scientists.

Brown placed within the Pediatrics – psychiatry subfield; Cucinotta within the Oncology and Carcinogenesis – meteorology subfield; Cummings within the Neurology and Neurosurgery – psychiatry subfield, and Wulf within the Experimental Psychology – sports sciences subfield.
