Seven UK DRI researchers feature on Highly Cited Researcher 2023 list

We are proud to announce that seven UK DRI researchers have featured in this year’s Highly Cited Researcher 2023 list from Clarivate. The annual ranking 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.

The 2023 list recognises 7,125 researchers from 67 countries, whose citation records position them in the very highest strata of influence and impact. The UK is third on the world rankings with 574 researchers included this year.

The methodology that determines the “who’s who” of influential researchers is based on publications that rank in the top 1% by citations for field and publication year in the Web of Science™ citation index. Analysis is 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 scientific elite are based.

The seven researchers recognised from UK DRI are:
