Two university teachers in Jiaxing, East China's Zhejiang province, made the list of the world's top 2 percent of scientists, according to a report recently released by the world-renowned Stanford University.

Wang Yangang and Huang Hong, both of whom work at the green ecology and low-carbon energy technology research center of Jiaxing University, were shortlisted for their outstanding performance in material science and analytical chemistry.

Wang is engaged in the research of new catalytic materials and technology and has undertook major research projects, including those funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China, the Shanghai Science and Technology Commission, and Natural Science Foundation of Zhejiang Province.

Wang has published more than 100 papers as the first or corresponding author in internationally renowned journals. He has also obtained two authorized invention patents.

Huang is engaged in work related to the synthesis of functional fluorescent nanomaterials and organic fluorescent probe molecules as well as the development of the method for the analysis and detection of hazardous and noxious substances in environment.

He has published more than 50 papers in internationally renowned journals and obtained six authorized invention patents.

The list of top scientists was created by Stanford experts on the basis of standardised citation indicators like information on citations, h-index, co-authorship, and a composite indicator from nearly 7 million scientists around the world.
