As a general rule, the more often a study is cited by other researchers, the more significant it is. On the current list of Highly Cited Researchers, 21 have a connection to ETH Zurich. Four of these appear on the list for the first time. Every year, the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI) determines which researchers have been cited most by their peers. This provides a metric for how influential the researchers are. Of the 7,225 researchers who appear on this year's list of Highly Cited Researchers, 112 are based in Switzerland and 21 work at, or have a connection to, ETH Zurich. New to the list are proteomics and cancer researcher Bernd Bodenmiller, who works at ETH Zurich and the University of Zurich, glacier researcher Matthias Huss, chemist Javier Pérez-Ramírez and evolution researcher and biomathematician Tanja Stadler.
