Five scientists from ImmunoSensation2 are among the world's most cited researchers, annualy published by the information service provider Clarivate Analytics. Once more, Prof. Joachim Schultze (DZNE), Prof. Andreas Schlitzer (LIMES) and Prof. Eicke Latz (DRFZ), Prof. Jonathan Schmid-Burgk (UKB) and Thomas Bieber (UKB) are part of the impressive list.

According to the compilers of the ranking, the people on this list of ‘Highly Cited Researchers’ are among the world's most influential one per cent in their field. The list contains around 6,600 researchers from 59 countries. From Germany, 332 researchers have made it onto the list - including ten from the University of Bonn


The benchmark is the frequency with which scientific publications have been cited by other researchers in the last ten years (period from 2013 to 2023). For the analysis, the creators of the list divided the publications into 20 subject areas and introduced the ‘Cross-Field’ section, which lists researchers who have published in several subject areas.

The ranking is published annually by the ‘Web of Science Group’ and can be found here.

The Retina as a Window into the Early Detection of Brain Diseases

—The retina is the only part of the central nervous system that can be examined non-invasively and at high resolution in living humans. Dr Christina Mayer and her team at Bonn University Hospital (UKB) and the University of Bonn aim to use this unique feature to detect inflammatory and vascular diseases of the brain earlier and more accurately, and to better understand how they develop.
