Prof. Fariborz Sharifian Jazi was included among the top 2% of highly cited scientists worldwide in the 2023 list.
The selection was based on a standardized set of bibliometric indicators used to compare researchers across scientific fields. These indicators include citation counts, the h-index, the hm-index adjusted for co-authorship, citations to papers according to the researcher’s position in the author list, and a composite indicator.
The analysis was conducted by Elsevier B.V. using a publicly available database containing information on more than 100,000 highly cited scientists.
The database provides standardized information on researchers’ citation records and other bibliometric indicators. Scopus data provided by Elsevier through ICSR Lab was used for the analysis.
The methodology is intended to account for several aspects of research impact rather than relying on a single indicator such as the number of publications or total citations.
