LSRE-LCM researchers in Research.com 2023 rankings

May 15, 2023

The LSRE-LCM research group is proud to announce that eleven of its researchers were recognized in the Research.com thematic rankings for 2023. Among the 482 Portuguese researchers highlighted in the rankings, these LSRE-LCM team members were recognized for their exceptional contributions to their respective fields.

The rankings consider several analysis criteria to evaluate the researchers, with emphasis on the number of citations and the D-Index (Discipline H-index). The D-Index measures the interdependence between authors and their research environment, considering the history of their scientific publications. In addition, the researchers' number of publications and a comprehensive list of their awards and achievements are also taken into account.

Below, you can consult the list of LSRE-LCM research members highlighted by Research.com, divided by subject areas. Names are sorted according to the assigned rank.
