(c) ShutterstockNever before has WUR had so many researchers on the list. The 19 Wageningen scientists are in the top one per cent in their scientific field when it comes to citations of their work over a period of 10 years.
Last year, there were nine WUR researchers on the list, but the top-scoring microbiologist Willem de Vos was missing because he operates on the cutting edge of several different disciplines. Now an additional category has been added – cross-field researchers – and this has panned out well for WUR. Seven of the 19 top Wageningen scientists come under this new category.
