The 1st edition of Research.com ranking of the best scientists in the
discipline of Immunology is based on data
combined from a wide range of data sources including OpenAlex and
CrossRef. The bibliometric data for estimating the citation-based metrics were
acquired on 06-12-2021. Position in the ranking is based on a
scholar’s D-index (Discipline H-index), which
includes exclusively papers and citation
values for an examined discipline.

The scope of our Immunology research
Our best scholars ranking is a reliable
account of leading researchers from the area of
Immunology, created using a detailed
analysis of 166,880 scientists identified
from a variety of bibliometric data sources. For the field of
Immunology, over 6370 researchers were
analysed.
What is D-index approval threshold for Immunology
The D-index threshold for accepting a scholar to be
examined is placed at 40 if
most of their publications are in the field of Immunology. The
inclusion factors for scholars to be
considered into the ranking of top scholars are based on the D-index, ratio
of the publications made within the given field of study
in addition to the awards and achievements of the scholars. The
D-index threshold for listing top scientists is
set as an increment of 10 depending on the overall number of researchers
estimated for each area od study whilst
ensuring that the top 1% of best scientists are
incorporated into the list. There should be a proximity of
30% or less between a scientist’s general H-index and their D-index.
Extra verification rules
As our main goal is to guarantee that only
genuine researchers are listed in
Research.com ranking we are aware that metrics are never
meant to be a complete means to assess the
work of scholars. Because of that
we manually inspect each profile and cross-correlate it against publications in a
varied range of trustworthy sources. Even though it’s not a
metric impacting a scholar’s position in
the ranking, the quantity of papers published in
major journals and conference proceedings should constitute a
valuable secondary indication of their contribution to research in a
given discipline. Position in the ranking is
determined by each researcher’s D-index
using data compiled from OpenAlex and
CrossRef, which are the most credible and well-known bibliometric
databases of this type accessible to the scientific community. A
thorough overview of our research policy
can be found on our
methodology page.
Our agenda
Our objective is to motivate scientists,
entrepreneurs and decision-makers
worldwide to explore where leading experts are heading
and to offer an opportunity for the whole scientific community to
find out who the leading experts in specific
disciplines, in different countries, or even within research
institutions are.
