Abstract

Stanford University maintains a comprehensive database that highlights the world’s top 2% most-cited scientists across 22 fields and 176 subfields. Developed by John P. A. Ioannidis and his colleagues in 2019, this essential resource assesses researchers’ impacts using various metrics, including citations, h-index, and a composite c-score. The database is periodically updated to ensure it reflects the latest metrics and rankings, with the most recent update occurring on September 17, 2024. In this recent update, we are proud to announce that two of the founders of the SM3D Portal, Vuong Quan Hoang and Nguyen Minh Hoang, have been recognized for their significant contributions to academia.
