As in previous years, the study did not change its measurement and evaluation tools, as the research team updated the database of over 100,000 most cited scientists (from the Scopus database) and ranked them based on key criteria such as: scientific impact score (composite score); total citations (excluding self-citations); Hirsch h-index; Schreiber hm-index; citations for articles published as a single author; citations for articles as the main author (first author and corresponding author), and last author.
Scientists are divided into 22 scientific fields and 176 subfields (disciplines/specializations).
According to the latest rankings published on October 10, 2022, among Vietnamese scientists working full-time in the country, two scientists are ranked in the top 10,000 worldwide, and 34 scientists are ranked in the top 100,000 most influential scientists in 2022.
Two scientists ranked highly in the top 10,000 worldwide are Professor Dr. Nguyen Dinh Duc and Associate Professor Dr. Le Hoang Son, both from Vietnam National University, Hanoi.
In this ranking, Associate Professor Dr. Le Hoang Son is ranked 5817th and position 222nd in the field of Information Technology and Communications, while Professor Dr. Nguyen Dinh Duc is ranked 7455th and position 94th in the world in the field of Engineering.
Thus, Professor Nguyen Dinh Duc and Associate Professor Le Hoang Son are among the top 10,000 most influential scientists in the world in terms of citations for four consecutive years, from 2019 to the present.
In the list of 34 Vietnamese scientists in the top 100,000 publications this year, besides the two scientists in the top 10,000, there is also Professor Nguyen Duc Khuong (Republic of France), a visiting professor at Vietnam National University, Hanoi, ranked 41,090th in Economics, and Dr. Chu Dinh Toi - International School of Vietnam National University, Hanoi, ranked 66,906th in Medicine and Biology.
