Duke-NUS and SingHealth researchers among the world’s most influential scientists

Four Duke-NUS Medical School and SingHealth Duke-NUS Academic Medical Centre (AMC) researchers have once again been named to Clarivate’s Highly Cited Researchers list, recognising their exceptional global impact across multiple scientific fields.  

Representing disciplines from cross-field to immunology to pharmacology and toxicology, they are among 87 Highly Cited Researchers from Singapore whose published work ranks in the top one per cent worldwide by citations. Their research continues to shape scientific conversations, influencing discoveries and clinical innovation far beyond their own fields.

Each year, Clarivate identifies Highly Cited Researchers based on papers that rank in the top 1 per cent by citations for their field and publication year, drawn from data in the Web of Science Core Collection over the past eleven years. This year’s list recognises 6,868 researchers from more than 1,300 institutions in 60 countries and regions.

In particular, a broad selection process and enhanced filters were used to ensure that the list spotlights researchers who exemplify excellence in their research as well as integrity in their publication and citation practices.

David Pendlebury, Head of Research Analysis at the Institute for Scientific Information at Clarivate said: “The Highly Cited Researchers list identifies and celebrates exceptional individual researchers at Duke-NUS who demonstrate significant and broad influence in their fields. They exemplify excellence in their research as well as integrity in their publication and citation practices. These researchers continue to shape the future of science, technology and academia globally and deliver innovation that drives societal progress.”

Together, these researchers exemplify the SingHealth Duke-NUS AMC’s commitment to discovery, collaboration and translational impact, advancing knowledge that improves health and transforms care across Asia and the world.
