About the Stanford-Elsevier Top 2% List
Published annually by Stanford 188体育网址_188体育在线-【唯一授权网站】@ in collaboration with Elsevier, this highly respected global ranking is derived from the science-wide author databases of standardised citation indicators using Scopus data updated to the end of 2024.
The methodology accounts for career-long achievement and single-year (2024) performance, using a composite citation index (c-score) that adjusts for:
-
Co-authorship and author order (first, last, single, etc.)
-
Self-citations
-
Discipline-specific variations across 22 scientific fields and 174 subfields
This rigorous framework ensures that recognition reflects not just publication volume, but meaningful and lasting scientific influence.
