About the Stanford/Elsevier citation database

In 2019, researchers from Stanford University (Ioannidis et al. 2019) published a ranking of the world's most-cited scholars. This was highly acclaimed for its methodology and scope because it combined various citation indicators calculated based on data from Scopus (Elsevier). The most recent edition of the dataset was published in October 2023 and lists over 200,000 top-cited scientists from 22 sicientific fields and 174 sub-fields:
