Highly Cited Researchers 2025
Each year Clarivate identifies the scientists whose publications rank in the top 1% by citations for their field and year of publication. 6,866 researchers are on the 2025 list, across 22 fields.
The list itself is Clarivate’s — see the original roster and methodology. What JRNLClub adds is the link out: where we can confidently match a listed researcher to the open scholarly record, their name here goes to their publications, co-author network, and citation history. Names we have not matched are still listed.
