Thomson Reuters, an international media firm, ranked Michael Deininger, MD, PhD, one of the world’s highly cited researchers in 2014.
The recognition is given to the top 1% of more than 3,000 authors worldwide in 21 science and social science fields who were most cited between 2002 and 2012.
Deininger, an investigator at Huntsman Cancer Institute and professor of internal medicine at the University of Utah, wrote 160 papers on clinical medicine during that 10-year period. His publications have appeared in The New England Journal of Medicine, Blood, Cancer Cell and Nature Genetics.
A press release issued by Thomson Reuters indicated Deininger’s inclusion on the list of most cited researchers shows that “peers have identified [his] contributions as among the most valuable and significant in the field of clinical medicine.”
In 2010, Deininger was appointed Huntsman Cancer Institute’s Maxwell M. Wintrobe professor of medicine and chief of hematology and hematologic malignancies. In 2014, he was named senior director of transdisciplinary research.
