Our heartiest congratulations to NIE faculty members listed among the top 2% scientists by Stanford University 2025

Our heartiest congratulations to the NIE faculty named among the global top 2% of academics in their subject fields by Stanford University for 2025.

This ranking, which focuses on single-year and career-long scientific impact, was curated by Stanford University using Scopus data provided by Elsevier through the ICSR lab. Career-long data are updated to the end of 2024, and single recent-year data pertain to citations received during calendar year 2024.

The report was prepared by Professor John P. A. Ioannidis from Stanford University. The ranking is based on standardised citation metrics, including h-index, co-authorship adjusted hm-index, and a composite indicator (C-score) that emphasises impact (i.e. citations) over productivity (i.e. number of publications).
