The College of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences (CLASS) at CityUHK is pleased to announce that 13 CLASS faculty members have been recognised by Stanford University as among the top 2 per cent most-cited scientists in the world.
Based on the bibliometric information from the Scopus database as of 1 October 2023, Stanford University released the list of the top 2 per cent most-cited scientists in various scientific disciplines globally. This publicly available database, published by Professor John P.A. IOANNIDIS, provides standardised information on citations, h-index, co-authorship adjusted hm-index, citations to papers in different authorship positions and a composite indicator (c-score). Continually updated, the list presents separate data for career-long and single recent year impact.
The following scholars, listed in alphabetical order of surnames, have earned their place on this prestigious list:

Associate Professor, Department of Public and International Affairs
Chandra’s research focuses on the mechanisms of performance of entrepreneurship and innovation in the social and public sector, and how new technologies affect the economy, civil society and policy, and ways to govern them.

He also studies blockchain and decentralised autonomous organisation for value creation. These build on his multi-year research investigating the relationship between entrepreneurship and performance in hybrid organisations, social entrepreneurship, and sustainable business models such as B-Corporation and impact investing.
