The 2022 Highly Cited Researchers (HCR) list was released on November 15, 2022 by Clarivate, Web of Science (Institute for Scientific Information’s experts). Clarivate™ this year has announced 7,225 Highly Cited Researcher designations that are being issued to 6,938 individuals. The number of HCR designations exceeds individuals because some researchers receive recognition in more than one Essential Science Indicators™ field. The analysis of nations and institutions counts HCR designations or appearances and is thus based on the total of 7,225.

The 7,225 Highly Cited Researcher designations of 2022 are unevenly distributed by field, in accordance with the size of each. Highly Cited Researchers 2022 work in some 70 countries/regions, but 82.9% are from just 10 and 71.4% from the first five, a remarkable concentration of top talent.

 

Web of Science highlighted that the researchers selected for this list are leaders in their research field since they have published several high-quality papers that are among the most-cited in their disciplines and years of publication.

There are a total of 6938 scientists (0.1%) selected around the world from more than 8 million researchers on this list, and their distribution around the globe is shown in Figure 1 below. The United States clearly has the largest share of the world’s most cited scientists.
