A total of 56 researchers from Jeonbuk National University (President Yang Oh-bong) have been selected for the “World’s Top 2% Scientists” list jointly released by Stanford University and the global publisher Elsevier.

This ranking is based on an analysis of approximately 9 million researchers worldwide using standardized citation indicators (C-Score). Among national flagship universities in Korea—excluding those affiliated with medical, dental, and hospital systems—Jeonbuk National University ranks third in the number of selected researchers.

The evaluation was conducted under two criteria: a career-long assessment, which considers overall research achievements from 1960 to 2024, and a single-year assessment, based on research performance in 2024 alone.
