14 academics from UCT Prague are among the world's top 2% most-cited scientists

A total of 14 academics from the University of Chemistry and Technology, Prague (UCT Prague) are among the world's top 2% most-cited scientists for 2025. The prestigious international ranking was published in October 2026 by Stanford University in collaboration with Elsevier.

Based on data from the Scopus database, the ranking takes into account a range of bibliometric indicators, including citation counts, the h-index, citations excluding self-citations and authorship position in scientific publications. The results are summarised using a composite indicator (c-score), which enables comparisons of the citation impact of research across different disciplines.
