FRANKFURT. In most cases, it is fundamental scientific findings that result in a paper being cited frequently by other scientists. That is why citation frequency serves as an indicator of the published articles' scientific significance as well as the authors' visibility in the scientific community.
Once a year, information and technology company Clarivate Analytics evaluates its 鈥淲eb of Science" citation database and publishes the 鈥淗ighly Cited Researchers" ranking. The current ranking includes around 6,600 scientists, in no particular order, who belonged to the one percent of authors whose scientific articles in the natural and engineering sciences, medicine, and the categories 鈥淓conomics and Business" and 鈥淪ocial Sciences" were cited most frequently between 2013 and 2023, either within their own category or in different subjects (鈥渃ross-field").
