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

Stanford University recently published its updated list of the World’s Top 2% Scientists. The data, ranging from 1960 to 2022, are divided into two lists: the “Lifetime Scientific Influence Ranking” and the “2022 Annual Scientific Influence Ranking”. The “Lifetime Scientific Influence Ranking” presents the comprehensive influence of scientists during their careers, and the “2022 Annual Influence Ranking” highlights the academic influence of scientists in the previous year. This ranking, considered the most prestigious worldwide, is based on bibliometric information contained in the Scopus database and includes more than 200,000 of the more than 10 million active scientists worldwide, with 22 scientific fields and 176 subfields considered.

We are pleased to share that 156 Editorial Board Members from MDPI’s journal Microorganisms (IF: 4.926, ISSN: 2076-2607) were featured in Stanford University’s list of World’s Top 2% Scientists in 2022.
