Editorial Board Members from Phycology Featured in Stanford’s List of the World’s Top 2% Scientists

Stanford University has recently published an update of the list of the top 2% most widely cited scientists—the World’s Top 2% Scientists.

The time period of the statistical data of this list ranges from 1960 to 2022, and it is divided into two lists, “Lifetime Scientific Influence Ranking” and “2022 Annual Scientific Influence Ranking”. The “Lifetime Scientific Influence Ranking” measures the comprehensive influence performance of scientists during their careers, and the “2022 Annual Influence Ranking” focuses on highlighting the academic influence of scientists in the previous year. This ranking, considered to be the most prestigious worldwide, is based on the bibliometric information contained in the Scopus database, and includes more than 200,000 researchers from the more than 10 million scientists considered to be active worldwide, with 22 scientific fields and 176 subfields taken into account.

We are pleased to share that three Editorial Board Members from MDPI’s Phycology (ISSN: 2673-9410) were featured in Stanford University’s list of the World’s Top 2% Scientists in 2022.

The latest Stanford rankings reflect the significant influence and research excellence of the above scientists, who are committed to furthering their knowledge for the benefit of the world.

We would like to congratulate our Editorial Board Members on their excellent achievement and thank them for their immense contributions to the scientific progression and development of Phycology.
