With 49 primary affiliations and 9 secondary affiliations, UCL has the 2nd most in the UK behind the University of Oxford - and ranks 15 in the world overall, up from 26 in 2021. UCL researchers were present in 10 of the 17 academic fields listed, namely: Biology and Biochemistry; Clinical Medicine; Cross-Field; Environment & Ecology; Immunology; Molecular Biology & Genetics; Neuroscience & Behaviour; Pharmacology & Toxicology; Psychiatry & Psychology; and Social Sciences. A total of 20 UCL researchers have been recognised in the 'Cross-Field' category, up from 17 in 2021, reflecting the university's increasing engagement with cross-disciplinary activity. Two academics - Professors Andrew Steptoe (UCL Institute of Epidemiology & Health ) and Susan Michie (UCL Psychology & Language Sciences ) - have been listed in two categories, joining just 249 other individuals worldwide recognised in multiple fields of research this year. Professor Geraint Rees, UCL Vice-Provost (Research, Innovation & Global Engagement), said: "UCL's inclusion in this list is a great honour, and testimony to the outstanding work of my academic colleagues, supported by our professional services staff. I'd like to extend my warmest congratulations to everyone who has contributed to this success." The list identifies around 6,940 researchers from 69 countries across the globe who have demonstrated significant influence in their chosen field(s) through the publication of multiple highly cited papers during the last decade.
