The number of researchers from China inland recognized as Highly Cited keeps soaring and 770 were named this year, accounting for 12.1% of the total.

In the list of 2020, 18 scholars from 10 universities and scientific research institutes of China were named as HCRs of Physics Discipline. Dean Yanming Ma was listed as one of the HCRs of Physics Discipline for the fourth year in a row (2017-2020).

Global HCR List identifies influential researchers of various disciplines as determined by their peers-those who have consistently won recognition in the form of high citation counts over a decade.

The authors of these papers will be chosen as the HCRs. Citation record of paper is one of the key indices in assessing the research results of scientific researchers. Being listed as a HCR means the scholar is of world-wide influence in his/her field and the research results have made great contributions to the development of his/her field.
