Overview
Royal Veterinary College
Royal Veterinary College (RVC) is a public veterinary school in London, United Kingdom. It is a constituent college of the federal University of London. Its roots can be traced back to the Veterinary College of London, which was established in 1791 by Granville Penn, the grandchild of William Penn. RVC is known for its veterinary science programs, reflecting its heritage as the largest and oldest veterinary school in the UK and one among the only nine vet schools in the country.

As a public institution of education, it receives funding from the government through various agencies as well as the University of London. It also receives significant grants through partnerships with academic institutions, corporations, and other organizations. In 2017, it received a $7 million grant from the Aligning Science Across Parkinson’s initiative in collaboration with University College London.
Royal Veterinary College research produces some of the notable research outputs in various fields such as medicine, biology, and internal medicine. Its researchers, faculty members, and students are also active participants of conferences such as EMBC: International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, NER: International IEEE/EMBS Conference on Neural Engineering, and RSS: Robotics: Science and Systems.
Its most popular output is Klionsky et al.’s (2021) “Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy (4th edition),” which was published in the Autophagy journal. It was cited 8,166 times by researchers around the world. Its second most popular academic paper is Klionsky et al.’s (2012) “Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy,” which was cited 8,032 times. It was similarly published in the Autophagy journal. Its third most popular research work is Hui et al.’s (2020) “The continuing 2019-nCoV epidemic threat of novel coronaviruses to global health - The latest 2019 novel coronavirus outbreak in Wuhan, China,” which was published in the International Journal of Infectious Diseases.

D-index
D-index (Discipline H-index) only includes papers and citation values for an examined discipline in
contrast to General H-index which accounts for publications across all disciplines.
Our research was coordinated by Imed Bouchrika, PhD, a computer scientist with a well-established record
of collaboration on a number of international research projects with different partners from the academic
community. His role was to make sure all data remained unbiased, accurate, and up-to-date.
We list only scientists having D-Index >= 20 within the area of
Animal Science and Veterinary. If you or other scholars are not listed, we appreciate if you can
