The rating, famous as “Updated science-wide author databases of standardized citation indicators” is considered one of the most authoritative in the science world. The prestige of the rating is stipulated by its complex approach to the assessment of scientific input of scientists, taking into account not only the number of citations, but also their quality, as well as the role of the author in the publications. Inclusion into this list testifies to the high international recognition of scientific works and their considerable influence over the development of relevant research areas.
“The Inclusion of our scientists into this list confirms the high level of research conducted at Moscow Polytech. This is recognition not only of their personal achievements, but also of the contribution of our entire academic community into the world science,” - stated Vice-President for Scientific Affairs at Moscow Polytech Anton Nalivaiko.

It uses a comprehensive indicator (c-score), which evaluates not only the number of citations, but also their quality, taking into account co-authorship and the author’s position in publications. The database created under the leadership of John P.A. Ioannidis, includes top 100 000 scientists under the c-score or those, who are in the 2% of the best in their subfield. It covers 22 scientific fields and 174 subfields according to the standard Science-Metrics classification.
