The 2nd edition of Research.com ranking of the best scientists in the
discipline of Animal Science and Veterinary relies os data
derived from multiple data sources including OpenAlex and
CrossRef. The bibliometric data for devising the citation-based metrics were
collected on 21-12-2022. Position in the ranking is based on a
scholar’s D-index (Discipline H-index), which
includes exclusively publications and citation
values for an examined discipline.

The scope of our Animal Science and Veterinary research
Our best scholars ranking is a credible
account of leading scientists from the discipline of
Animal Science and Veterinary, created using a thorough
examination of 166,880 scientists determined
from a variety of bibliometric data sources. For the discipline of
Animal Science and Veterinary, more than 40040 scientists were
investigated.
What is D-index inclusion threshold for Animal Science and Veterinary
The D-index threshold for approving a researcher to be
evaluated is established at 20 if
the majority of of their publications are in the field of Animal Science and Veterinary. The
acceptance factors for scholars to be
considered into the ranking of top scholars are based on the D-index, proportion
of the contributions made within the selected area
plus the awards and achievements of the scholars. The
D-index threshold for listing best scholars is
set as an increment of 10 depending on the overall number of scientists
estimated for each scientific field whilst
making sure that the top 1% of best scholars are
added into the list. We expect a proximity of
30% or less between a scholar’s general H-index and their D-index.
Extra verification rules
Because our primary goal is to ensure that only
credible researchers are included in
Research.com ranking we believe that metrics are never
meant to be a complete means to evaluate the
output of researchers. This is why
we manually check every profile and cross-correlate it against publications in a
wide range of credible sources. Although it’s not a
factor contributing to a scientist’s position in
Research.com ranking, the number of papers published in
prominent journals and conference proceedings should form a
credible secondary implication of their contribution to research in a
given discipline. Position in the ranking is
based on every researcher’s D-index
with the help of information collected from OpenAlex and
CrossRef, which are the most prominent and well-established bibliometric
databases of this type open to the scientific community. A
comprehensive overview of our research policy
can be found on our
methodology page.
Our agenda
Our aim is to motivate scientists,
companies and decision-makers
worldwide to explore where top experts are heading
and to give an opportunity for the whole research community to
get to know who the leading experts in specific
disciplines, in different countries, or even within research
institutions are.
