The list identifies researchers with the top 1% most cited publications each year. Professor Kim has been included on the list for the past three years by Thomson Reuters. 

The preliminary list of 3,200 Highly Cited Researchers identified using this methodology includes 28 Koreans. From the Korea University faculty, Professor Jong Seung Kim and former faculty member Anil Jain who was with Korea University’s Department of Brain and Cognitive Engineering until 2013 were named.
