The ranking - compiled by Stanford University in cooperation with the publishing house Elsevier and the SciTech Strategies company - evaluates, among other things, the scholars' scientific achievements based on a bibliometric index
The TOP 2% most influential scientists list includes the names of scientists whose publications are most frequently cited by other authors. The scientific output of individual scholars from all fields of science is evaluated according to the bibliometric index, which takes into account the Hirsch index, number of citations (including self-citations), Impact Factor, place and role in the list of authors. The list prepares 2 rankings. The first takes into account the total scientific output until the end of 2021. The second considers only citations from the most recent calendar year, in this case 2021. We are extremely proud that included on this prestigious list is Prof. Krzysztof Pyrć, PhD from MCB, the leader of the Virogenetics team. This is undoubtedly a tremendous honour testifying to the high quality of Prof. Pyrć's group's research, the worldwide reach of the results published by his team and his recognition in the international scientific arena. We sincerely congratulate to Professor Pyrć and wish further success.
