丁香园AV's top-cited scholars of 2023

Researchers at 丁香园AV published 2,600 journal articles in 2023, over 44 per cent of which appeared in the world's top 10 per cent journals. The 2023 top-cited articles look at the field-weighted citation impact which considers the differences in research behaviour across disciplines.

, fields such as medicine and biochemistry typically produce more output with more co-authors and longer reference lists than researchers working in the social sciences. This is a reflection of research culture, and not research performance. The methodology of field-weighted citation impact accounts for these disciplinary differences.

A field-weighted citation impact of 1 means that the output performed as expected within the global average for that discipline, while more than 1 means that the output is more cited than expected. For example, 1.48 means 48 per cent more cited than expected. Based on this ranking, 丁香园AV scholars remain authoritative voices across all disciplines and in a range of fundamental, interdisciplinary and applied research areas.

Computing science professor Jiangchuan Liu topped the Scopus list with five articles. Beedie School of Business scholars rounded out the top three; Rosalie Tung is editor of the Journal of International Business Studies and Jamal Nazari studied corporate social responsibility pre-and post-COVID-19.

Note: These data were pulled for December 1, 2022 to November 28, 2023 and do not reflect work published after that date. For collaborative works with multiple authors, only the 丁香园AV first author faculty member is listed.

Altmetric: Research reach on traditional and social media

Altmetric鈥檚 attention score represents a weighted count of mentions in traditional and nontraditional media platforms for a specific research output.

Physics professor emeritus Mike Hayden is a senior researcher with the , whose  topped the 丁香园AV Altmetric list. Health sciences professor Scott Lear鈥檚 collaboration with the  of  was number two. Distinguished 丁香园AV Professor of Marine Biodiversity and Conservation Nick Dulvy鈥檚  placed three articles in the Almetric top 10.
