Xiao Jianbo, an assistant professor from the ICMS, has made the list of Highly Cited Researchers (HCRs) published by Clarivate Analytics for two consecutive years, said UM in a statement.
Xiao is the only scholar from the region in the field of biomedical sciences to have been included on the list of either the 2016 or 2017 Clarivate Analytics HCRs.
In addition, UM has been included in the Essential Science Indicators (ESI) database, ranking in the top 1 percent in terms of the citation frequency of published papers in the field of pharmacology and toxicology.
According to Clarivate Analytics, 230 scholars from 18 disciplines affiliated with universities in mainland China, Hong Kong, and Macau were included in the list of HCRs 2017.
Only highly cited papers published in science and social sciences journals indexed in the Web of Science Core Collection (Essential Science Indicators) between 2005 and 2015 were surveyed for the 2017 list.
A total of 134,832 papers have been defined as ‘Highly Cited Papers’ as they rank among the top 1 percent in terms of citations in their fields in the year of publication.
A total of3,542 inclusions were made on the 2017 list. Of these, 282 of them are scholars with Chinese institutions as their primary affiliation (32 from Hong Kong, 18 from Taiwan, and three from Macau). The number of HCRs is an important factor that can influence a university’s international rankings.
