A total of 110 scholars from PAIR and its 17 constituent research units were ranked among the world’s top 2% most-cited scientists in the newly released metrics compiled by Stanford University, and four of them were among the top 20 scholars in the world in their own areas of specialty.
The latest ranking reflects the influential research of PAIR researchers and PolyU’s leading position in multiple research areas. The latest ranking compiled by Stanford University covers over 100,000 top scientists across the globe. The database grouped scientists under 22 subject fields and 174 sub-fields, and the ranking was compiled based on indicators of research publications, including information on citations, individual’s scientific research output, co-authorship and a composite indicator for career-long citation impact up to the end of 2022.
