Citation frequency is an important indicator of the quality and influence of research, as it shows which studies are recognized as particularly relevant by the scientific community. In order to determine the "Highly Cited Researchers", the company Clarivate evaluates the Web of Science database it operates on an annual basis. Only publications that are among the top one percent of the most cited papers in the 21 subject areas and the interdisciplinary category are taken into account.

In addition to the scientists at the LMU Klinikum, ten other LMU researchers were honored:17 LMU researchers among Clarivate's most successful "Highly Cited Researchers"
