World ranking
Stanford University (USA) has recently published the annual update of its publication known as the Stanford Researchers Ranking, which is one of the most prestigious rankings in the academic field at a global level. This ranking identifies researchers who have had a significant impact in their fields of study, measuring not only the quantity of publications, but also the quality and influence of their work in the scientific community. It is based on metrics including the number of citations, H-index, and other factors that evaluate the productivity and scope of academic work.
Among the more than 200,000 researchers included in the classification, Pere Clavé, director of Research and Innovation of the Consorci and principal investigator of the oropharyngeal dysphagia and neurogastroenterology research group (DYSPOD), with more than 250 scientific publications, is ranked 40,241. Mateu Serra, head of the CSDM Research Support Unit, specialist in frailty and aging and principal investigator of the research group on sarcopenia, frailty and dependency (GRESFD), also appears in the ranking, occupying position 192,309.
