Thirty-two NUS researchers have been placed among some of the world\u2019s most highly cited researchers, according to the Highly Cited Researchers 2021 List published by data analytics firm Clarivate.<\/p>\n

The highly-anticipated annual list, comprising 6,602 researchers from more than 70 countries and regions across the globe this year, identifies researchers who have demonstrated significant influence in their chosen field or fields through the publication of multiple highly cited papers during the last decade.<\/p>\n

Publications by Highly Cited Researchers are ranked in the top 1 percent by citations for field and publication year in Clarivate\u2019s Web of Science citation index.<\/p>\n

The methodology that determines the \u201cwho\u2019s who\u201d of influential researchers draws on the data and analysis performed by bibliometric experts and data scientists at the Institute for Scientific Information at Clarivate. It also uses the tallies to identify the countries and research institutions where these citation elite are based.<\/p>\n

The NUS luminaries in this year\u2019s list are recognised by their peers as outstanding in the fields of Chemistry, Clinical Medicine, Computer Science, Economics and Business, Engineering, Materials Science, Neuroscience and Behaviour, Pharmacology and Toxicology, Physics and more.<\/p>\n

NUS Deputy President (Research and Technology) Professor Chen Tsuhan said, \u201cNUS is incredibly proud of our highly regarded researchers who have been pushing the frontiers of their respective fields, and in turn, benefitting the community by creating new knowledge and solving real-world problems. Their outstanding work advances NUS\u2019 standing as one of the world\u2019s leading universities, and strengthens Singapore\u2019s reputation as a world-class research hub.\u201d<\/p>\n

David Pendlebury, Senior Citation Analyst at the Institute for Scientific Information at Clarivate, said: \u201cIt is increasingly important for nations and institutions to recognise and support the exceptional researchers who are driving the expansion of the world\u2019s knowledge. This list identifies and celebrates exceptional individual researchers at NUS who are having a significant impact on the research community as evidenced by the rate at which their work is being cited by their peers.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe research they have contributed is fueling the innovation, sustainability, health and security that is key for our society\u2019s future,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
