CEMS Highly Cited Papers

CEMS communicates knowledge through teaching, conference presentations, technology transfer, and by publishing findings of their research in distinguished, peer-reviewed scientific journals around the world.

A growing list of CEMS highly cited publications — ranging from 25 to over 200 citations since publication — are listed below. All are led by CEMS faculty as first author, second author, or corresponding author. The list was developed in the Fall/Winter of 2008 and will be updated bi-annually.

If you are in CEMS and have work to add to this list, please send an e-mail with your publication and citation information (using ISI Web of Science or an established equivalent) to CEMS Associate Dean Melody Burkins at melody.burkins@uvm.edu.
