Researchers from NUS\u00a0are among the world\u2019s most highly cited researchers whose research in one or more fields have consistently supported and inspired other researchers globally.<\/p>\n
Of the 27 NUS researchers named in the 2019 global highly cited researchers by Clarivate Analytics, 4 are ECE faculty members. These NUS researchers were recognised by their peers as outstanding researchers in the fields of Chemistry, Computer Science, Economics and Business, Engineering, Materials Science, Physics and more.<\/p>\n
The annual Highly Cited Researchers list from the Web of Science Group identifies scientists who have demonstrated significant influence through publication of multiple papers that are ranked in the top 1 per cent by citations for their field and year of publication.<\/p>\n

The Highly Cited Researchers list identifies scientists and social scientists who have published multiple papers that are ranked in the top 1 per cent by citations for their field and year of publication.<\/p>\n
The Highly Cited Researchers 2019 list draws on the data and analysis performed by bibliometric experts from the Institute for Scientific Information at the Web of Science Group. This year, some 6,000 unique researchers have been named Highly Cited Researchers across 21 fields of study, with over 3,500 in specific fields and close to 2,500 for cross-field performance.<\/p>\n
NUS Deputy President (Research and Technology) Professor Chen Tsuhan said, \u201cWe are extremely proud of the achievements of our NUS researchers whose work in their respective fields has created a positive impact on the research community, both locally and internationally. Their world-class research reflects the University\u2019s scientific excellence, and more importantly, reaffirms Singapore\u2019s standing in the global research landscape.\u201d<\/p>\n
“Among the 27 NUS researchers named in the 2019 list, more than half were acknowledged for their work beyond one discipline. This is also a testament of the University\u2019s collaborative and multi-disciplinary approach to research and innovation, which we are confident will position NUS well to become one of the most innovative universities in the world.”<\/em> \u2014 Professor Chen Tsuhan, NUS Deputy President (Research and Technology)<\/p>\n David Pendlebury, Senior Citation Analyst at the Institute for Scientific Information said, \u201cRecognition and support of these exceptional researchers represents an important activity for a nation or an institution\u2019s plans for efficient and accelerated advancement. The Highly Cited Researchers list contributes to the identification of that small fraction of the researcher population that contributes disproportionately to extending the frontiers of knowledge. These researchers create gains for society, innovation and knowledge that make the world healthier, richer, more sustainable and more secure.\u201d<\/p>\n The 4 highly cited ECE researchers are:<\/p>\n Department of Electrical and\u00a0Computer Engineering<\/p>\n NUS Faculty of Engineering<\/td>\n Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering<\/p>\n NUS Faculty of Engineering<\/td>\n Department of Electrical and Computer\u00a0Engineering<\/p>\n NUS Faculty of Engineering<\/td>\n Department of Electrical and\u00a0Computer Engineering<\/p>\n NUS Faculty of Engineering<\/td>\n Researchers from NUS\u00a0are among the world\u2019s most highly cited researchers whose research in one or more fields have consistently supported and inspired other researchers globally.
