Dana-Farber Cancer Institute is proud to announce that 42 of its researchers have been named to the Highly Cited Researchers list of 2024, released by the Institute for Scientific Information at Clarivate.

Highly Cited Researchers from Clarivate is an annual list that recognizes influential researchers in the sciences and social sciences from around the world who have demonstrated significant and broad influence in their field(s) of research. Each researcher selected has authored multiple Highly Cited Papers which rank in the top 1% by citations for their field(s) and publication year in the Web of Science over the past decade. Of the world's population of scientists and social scientists, Highly Cited Researchers are 1 in 1,000.

"It is an honor to see many of Dana-Farber's remarkable faculty named as Highly Cited Researchers," said Kevin M. Haigis, PhD, Chief Research Officer at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. "The groundbreaking research that we conduct here in Boston benefits cancer patients around the world."

David Pendlebury, Head of Research Analysis at the Institute for Scientific Information at Clarivate said, "The Highly Cited Researchers list identifies and celebrates exceptional individual researchers at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute whose significant and broad influence in their fields translates to impact in their research community. Their pioneering innovations contribute to a healthier, more sustainable and secure world. These researchers' achievements strengthen the foundation of excellence and innovation that drives societal progress."

The data to develop the list derives from Essential Science Indicators, a component of InCites. For their 2024 analysis, Clarivate reviewed Highly Cited Papers from 20 broad fields in Essential Science Indicators. These fields are defined by journal groupings and in the case of multidisciplinary journals, such as Nature and Science, papers are individually assigned to a field based on cited reference analysis. Only article and review papers are considered.
