37 UCLA scientists among world’s most influential researchers

Clarivate released its annual list of the most highly cited researchers, which includes dozens of UCLA scientists across various disciplines.

The list is compiled by the Institute for Scientific Information at Clarivate using data based on scholarly publication counts and citation indexes. The selected researchers wrote publications that ranked in the top 1% by citations in their field for that year.

Early Career Research project site launch
 

IDRE Early Career Researchers (ECR) Group launched a new space  to highlight their diverse projects in information science, digital scholarship, data science, and computational science. 

The Early Career Research Project page provides a place for scholars to showcase the early phase of their careers in developing and using digitally enabled innovative research. 

 

Any early career research faculty, postdoctoral researcher, or graduate student affiliated with UCLA can submit their project here.
