Top Ranked Scientists in Clinical Medicine and Epidemiology

Although there are a number of indices of scientist impact and success, such as the H-index or the impact factor of journals in which authors publish--the overall impact and influence of a scientist can still be most easily summarized by the total number of citations a scientist's published papers receive. The total citations count is indeed how ISI ranked the top scientists in clinical medicine in the past decade 1995-2005.

Below are the rankings of the most-cited authors in clinical medicine (Source: ISI Essential Science Indicators), as well as ranking by the top sub-fields of epidemiology, cardiology, oncology, and general biomedicine.
