2% of the 2%
Stanford University, together with the publishing house Elsevier and SciTech Strategies, has created a ranking of 2% of the best scientists in the world. It contains 159,648 names, including 2% from the industry.
I am honored to be the 2% of the 2%. Academic research seeks the truth and new knowledge in long term, while industrial research helps to improve human life in the short term. Both are important. Would like to see more active researchers from the industry in the next Stanford University top scientist list.
