Research Rankings

A transparent measure of research contribution.

Method

How the score is calculated

The score adds five components. Records verified by CISBM administrators count towards it, and the weights are set by the organization and applied equally to every member.

  1. 01

    Verified publications

    Each publication verified by CISBM administrators adds points. Publications affiliated with CISBM weigh more, and sole, first, last, or corresponding authorship carries a multiplier.

  2. 02

    Citations

    Citations of verified publications add a small number of points, up to a fixed cap, so the score stays balanced across a member’s whole body of work.

  3. 03

    Affiliation

    An affiliation tier from 1 to 5, assigned by CISBM administrators to the member’s primary research institution.

  4. 04

    Degree

    The highest academic degree held, from bachelor’s level to doctoral, postdoctoral, and professorial appointments.

  5. 05

    Research experience

    Years since the first verified research activity: the earliest verified publication, or a start year verified by administrators. Capped after a number of years.
