Stanford University (USA) has recently published the World’s Top 2% Scientists, an update of the ranking that represents 2% of the most cited scientists in diverse disciplines. The ranking, considered to be the world’s most prestigious, is based on information from the Scopus database and includes more than 180,000 researchers.
The list, published in PlosBiology, ranks 7 Navarrabiomed researchers in the world’s Top 2%. The study includes two rankings: one with the list of researchers depending on the impact of their citations throughout their career and another that is limited to 2020.
