Publons Review Award - Jens Fischer

A "Publons Peer Review Award 2018" has been awarded to Jens V. Fischer, Microwaves and Radar Institute, on 12 September 2018 in category "Top 1%" in research field "Multidisciplinary". He is ranked „18th“ among 434 winners in this category based on Publon's global reviewer database, determined by the number of peer review reports performed during the 2017-2018 Award year. Publons' Peer Review Awards are the only cross-publisher Awards that celebrate the efforts of peer reviewers worldwide. Publons honors the engagement of the top 1% of reviewers in each of the 22 Essential Science Indicators (ESI) research fields every year. Rankings are calculated by number of verified pre-publication reviews performed and added to Publons between 1 September 2017 and 1 September 2018. Reviews are attributed to a ESI field based on the journal the review was performed for. The ESI field categorisation is used because these are broad research areas that align with the Web of Science (formerly ISI) – the most trusted citation index for scientific and scholarly research.
