Thirty-nine researchers affiliated with Johns Hopkins are among the 6,868 individuals on the annual Highly Cited Researchers list compiled by Clarivate Analytics.
The list includes one of Johns Hopkins University's Nobel laureates, Adam Riess, who won the 2011 Nobel Prize in Physics.
To be named a Highly Cited Researcher, individuals must have authored papers ranking in the top 1% by citations in their field over the past 11 years. Researchers are also selected for demonstrating significant influence in their area of study and upholding research integrity.
This year's Highly Cited Researchers work in 60 countries and regions, with 2,670, or 37.4%, representing the United States. Only 52 institutions are home to 27 or more scholars receiving Highly Cited Researcher recognition, Johns Hopkins among them.
"Through their research, Johns Hopkins faculty have had an outsized impact on the world," said Denis Wirtz, JHU's vice provost for research. "The knowledge they build and the discoveries they make have been vital in developing new technologies, pharmaceuticals, and medical treatments. Their scholarly work has expanded our understanding of the galaxy, human history, and countless other fields. The researchers included on this list indicate the active culture of discovery that drives all research at Johns Hopkins, one that we are proud to support through strategic investment in research across our academic divisions."
