World's Top 2% Scientists (2025 Single Year)

World's Top 2% Scientists (2025 Single Year)

A total of 187 scholars from PAIR and its 19 constituent research units were ranked among the “World’s Top 2% Most-cited Scientists (Single Year)” in the latest report released by Stanford University and 2 of them were among the top 20 scholars in the world in their own areas of specialty. The named PAIR scholars were included in the “Single Year Impact” list based on their citation impact in 2024.

The report was prepared by a team of experts led by Prof. John Ioannidis, the eminent Professor at the Stanford University. PAIR is very proud to announce that the following scientists in various PAIR research institutes and centres are on the list.
