The sixth issue of the World's Top 2% Scientists 2023 List was published by the team of Professor John P. A. Ioannidis at Stanford University and Mendeley Data of Elsevier. Based on the Scopus database, the team selected the top 2% of scientists in the world by scoring them on six key factors. The ranking was divided into 22 disciplines and 174 sub-disciplines, and the database covered about 200,000 eminent scientists. The ranking was released in two categories: Career-long Impact Ranking and Single Year Impact Ranking, which corresponded to the comprehensive data from 1960 - 2022 and 2022 respectively.
The list is not intended to rank scholars, but rather to explore a multi-dimensional way to show the state of scientific research from the perspective of scientists and to provide a measure of scientists' long-term performance in scientific research, in the hope of reflecting their influence in a more objective and realistic way. Inclusion in the list means that the scholar has a high global influence in his or her research field.
