Clarivate Analytics’s annual Highly Cited Researchers Report was released earlier this month, and we are pleased to announce that 37 investigators from Massachusetts General Hospital made the list.
According to Clarivate, highly cited researchers are selected for their exceptional research performance, determined by production of multiple highly cited papers that rank in the top 1% by citations for field and year.
For the 2018 report, the papers surveyed were those published and cited during 2006-2016, and which at the end of 2016 ranked in the top 1% by citations for their essential science indicators (ESI) and year.
Please join us in saying congratulations to this year’s class of highly cited researchers!
(Investigators with * after their names are MGH Research Scholars. Investigators with ** are Endowed MGH Research Institute Chairs.)
