The study performed a meticulous and reliable examination of 166,880 scientists from around the world, with the aim of inspiring scholars, entrepreneurs, and decision-makers worldwide to explore where leading experts are heading and to provide an opportunity for the entire scientific community to discover who the leading experts in specific fields of research are.
Position in the ranking is based on a scientist's D-index (Discipline H-index), which only includes papers and citation values for an examined discipline. GCI researchers were ranked in the disciplines 鈥淕enetics and Molecular Biology鈥� and 鈥淏iology and Biochemistry鈥�.
We are delighted to announce Prof. Nahum Sonenberg鈥檚 ranking as #1 in Canada and #35 in the world for the discipline of Biology and Biochemistry. Other notable rankings include Profs. Philippe Gros, Jerry Pelletier, Morag Park, Vincent Gigu猫re, Michel Tremblay and Xiang-Jiao Yang鈥檚 places as top 100 in Canada. We are privileged to have so many distinguished researchers at the GCI, who have influenced and shaped their fields of research to such extents.
