  • The chart plots the publication count of all 19,587 Biology and Biochemistry scientists ranked by Research.com in 2026, grouped into 100 ranges running from 47–56 to 1,028+ publications.
  • Wolfram Ostertag, a Biology and Biochemistry scholar from Universität Hamburg, records 185 publications - the 43rd percentile of the discipline.
  • 43% of ranked Biology and Biochemistry scientists score the same or lower than Wolfram Ostertag, and about 57% score higher.
  • The median of the discipline falls in the 197–206 publications range, and Wolfram Ostertag ranks below the median.
  • The most crowded range is 127–136 publications, holding 980 scientists (5% of the field).
  • 77% of the field sits in the lowest quarter of the value range (up to 287–296 publications), so the distribution is heavily right-skewed and high scores are rare.

Overview

Wolfram Ostertag was affiliated with Universität Hamburg in Germany during their academic career. Their research work did not yield a recorded list of recent papers, co-authors, or publication venues based on the available data.

Detailed information regarding Ostertag's main fields, subfields of study, or primary topics of work was not documented in the accessible records. There were no publicly noted book publications or awards attributed to them either.

Given the absence of specific research outputs, collaboration records, or thematic focus, it is not possible to provide a granular overview of their scientific contributions or academic influence based solely on the available data.
