Recently, Professor John P.A. Ioannidis and his team from Stanford University, in collaboration with Elsevier, have released the World's Top 2% Scientists list. This list primarily focuses on the "Career-long Impact" which measures the scientific influence throughout an academic career, as well as the "Single-year Impact" which highlights annual scientific achievements. Based on in-depth analysis of data from Scopus and utilizing six comprehensive metrics including citations (differentiating self-citations and others' citations), the H-index, and the HM factor (composite score, C-score), a total of 217,098 scientists have been selected. Among them, 10,687 scientists from mainland China have been included, accounting for 4.92%.

Being selected for the World’s Top 2% Scientists list signifies that the scholar has a significant global impact in their field of research and has made important contributions to its development. Click the link to view the full list: https://elsevier.digitalcommonsdata.com/datasets/btchxktzyw/7
