Four researchers affiliated with STC Research Centre at Mid Sweden University are included in the 2026 World's Top 2% Scientists list. We are proud to see Mikael Gidlund, Aamir Mahmood, Seyed Matin Malakouti and Seyed Jalaleddin Mousavirad recognised for the international impact of their research.
The World's Top 2% Scientists Network is an international compilation based on bibliometric data from Scopus. It identifies researchers with a high scientific impact, measured through citations and other citation-based indicators across a wide range of research disciplines.
Being included on the list means that a researcher ranks among the most cited in their field according to the methodology used. It is an indicator of the international reach and impact of their research.
The four STC researchers represent on the list are:
- Mikael Gidlund – Computer Engineering
- Aamir Mahmood – Computer Engineering
- Seyed Matin Malakouti – Electronics
- Seyed Jalaleddin Mousavirad – Computer Engineering and Electrical Engineering
Congratulations to all four! We are proud to see STC researchers making an impact in the international research community.
The 2026 edition of the compilation is based on citation data up to and including 2025.
