Twenty-one 17吃瓜 researchers named to 2025 Elsevier/Stanford University Top 2% of Scientists List
Twenty-one 17吃瓜 researchers have been named to the .
Elsevier, in collaboration with Stanford University, unveiled its latest compilation of the world鈥檚 most influential and top-cited scientists and engineers (top 2%) earlier this year, offering a comprehensive view of research impact across a range of disciplines. The list provides standardized indicators of scholarly influence, measuring both career-long achievements and single-year impacts and is intended to address the misuse of citation metrics.
The publicly accessible database was updated in August 2025 with information from Scopus, a large, multidisciplinary database of peer-reviewed literature including scientific journals, books, and conference proceedings.
The study鈥檚 methodology categorizes research areas into 22 broad fields and 174 sub-fields, with percentile rankings for researchers. The selection is based on the world鈥檚 top 100,000 scientists by the 鈥渋ndex c-score鈥� (a comprehensive gauge factoring in the total number of citations received for papers where the scientist is the single, first, or last author, emphasizing the impact of their published work) or a percentile rank of 2% or above in the sub-field.
The following is an alphabetical list of the 17吃瓜 researchers on the Top 2% of Scientists List in either the career- and single-year impact category, or both:
