16 I-Form Academics Recognised Among the World’s Top 2% Scientists

Sixteen I-Form Academics have been named among the World’s Top 2% of Scientists, according to the latest rankings compiled by Elsevier and Stanford University.

Twelve I-Form academics were recognised for their career-long scientific impact with an additional four were included in this year’s list for their recent single-year research impact.

The I-Form academics featured in the rankings are: Prof. Denis Dowling, Prof. Dermot Brabazon, Prof. Niall English, Prof. Valeria Nicolosi, Prof. Michael Gilchrist, Prof Dimitrios Zevgolis, Prof. Nicholas Dunne, Prof. Rocco Lupoi, Prof Wenxin Wang, Prof. Sean Leen, Prof Tiziana Margaria, Prof. David Browne, Associate Prof Pezhman Ghadimi, Dr Muhannad Ahmed Obeidi, Dr Vikram Pakrashi and Dr Tanya Levingstone.

This recognition highlights their pioneering contributions across diverse disciplines, including digitalisation, additive manufacturing, and materials science, which have earned them a place on this prestigious global list.

Their inclusion not only underscores their individual achievements, but also reflects the exceptional calibre of research undertaken by PhD students, postdoctoral researchers, and collaborators across the entire I-Form Centre.

As these academics continue to drive transformative innovation, their recognition among the world’s leading scientists reaffirms I-Form’s leadership in shaping the future of advanced manufacturing research.
