Prof. Giuseppe Cirella among the top 2% of the most influential scientists according to the Stanford University and Elsevier ranking.

Researchers from the University of Gdańsk have once again been included in the prestigious list of the top 2 per cent of the world’s most influential scientists. The list is compiled and updated annually by Stanford University in collaboration with the UG Publishing House.

 

The ranking, compiled and updated annually by Stanford University in collaboration with UG Publishing House, is regarded as one of the most prestigious in the world. It is based on citation data indexed in the Scopus database. The latest update (from August 2026, incorporating data up to the end of 2025) is based on a list of over 100,000 leading researchers, selected on the basis of their total citation counts.

 

We are proud that Prof. Giuseppe Cirella from the Faculty of Economics at the University of Gdańsk has been ranked among the top 2% of the most influential scientists, according to the ranking by Stanford University and Elsevier.

 

The main ranking is compiled on the basis of researchers’ achievements throughout their entire careers. It includes 21 researchers from the University of Gdańsk. The supplementary ranking, on the other hand, takes into account citations of works obtained in the past year (in this case, 2025). This list includes 28 scientists affiliated with the University of Gdańsk. As many as 18 names appear in both rankings.

 

It is worth noting that Prof. Giuseppe Cirella has appeared on the list once again. 

 

We express our sincere congratulations!
