Eight faculty members from the College of Biomedical and Translational Sciences at The University of North Texas Health Science Center at Fort Worth are among the top 2% of scientists in the world according to a new list from Standford University and Elsevier.
The rankings are based on citation data and use standardized metrics such as h-index and other bibliometric indicators to show career and recent-year impact.
