Also newly appointed professor Gerard van den Berg and emeritus professor Damien Power are included in the list.
The research team at Stanford University has created a database of over 100,000 top scientists of the world on the basis of standardised citation indicators. The analysis was conducted using citations from Scopus along with data assessing scientists for career-long citation impact till the year 2019 and for citation impact during a single calendar year.
