The University of Barcelona is ranked 102nd world and is the Spanish leading institution in the new edition of Best Universities. This ranking, published by the Research.com portal, analyses two thousand universities and is based on the work in different disciplines of the best scientists affiliated to each institution.
In Spain, the second place is held by the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, in world position 216, and also by the Complutense University of Madrid, in position 324. The ranking includes the results of up to sixty-one Spanish universities.
The position of each university is calculated by adding the h-index values of its affiliated researchers that exceed the threshold defined for each discipline, according to the GScholar database. Specifically, for each discipline, a list of outstanding researchers is established according to the results obtained in the h-index, an indicator that quantifies scientific productivity and the impact of published articles.
In the case of the UB, a total of 266 researchers are classified as outstanding scientists (some of them excel in more than one discipline). In the disciplines ranked, the UB is the state leader in psychology, neuroscience, medicine, biology and biochemistry, microbiology, immunology, ecology and evolution, and chemistry.
