More than 20 University of Adelaide researchers have been recognised for their outstanding work in the Clarivate annual global list of Highly Cited Researchers (HCR).

The HCR list is primarily based on citation activity, with successful academics authoring multiple highly cited papers which rank in the top 1 per cent by references for their fields.

University of Adelaide’s Professor Anton Middelberg, Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Research) congratulated the 23 researchers who received recognition.

“Our researchers have been acknowledged as among the world’s best, cementing Adelaide as a national and international hub for talent that is central to advancing our society and securing our future."Professor Anton Middelberg, Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Research), University of Adelaide

“Their cutting-edge research assists their colleagues around the world and is an inspiration to the next generation of scientists - their students early career researchers - many of whom will take up the mantle of leadership in their chosen fields," said Professor Middelberg.

“It is particularly pleasing to see so many of these research areas underpin significant sectors of strategic importance to the state and nation.”
