Top 50 Most-Cited Campus Publications

This list is updated every three to four months; significant changes are unlikely to occur more frequently.

We compile the list using Scopus, an abstract and citation database of peer-reviewed literature. We search the Affiliation field for Royal Children's Hospital, Murdoch Childrens Research Institute, and Department of Paediatrics, University of Melbourne. Results are then sorted in descending order of times cited.

The Cited column refers to the number of times the article has been cited; this is a widely used measure to determine an author's or institution's research output.

Limitations:

  1. Publications must be contained in the Scopus database.
  2. Campus affiliation is not always included in all publications.
