Ivo Welch and Florencio López-de-Silanes Among Top 100 Most-Cited Researchers in Economics

Ivo Welch and Florencio López-de-Silanes made Thomson-ISI's list of the top 100 most-cited researchers in economics. The ISI Citation Laureates typically rank among the top one-tenth of one percent of researchers in their field, based on citation counts to their papers over the last two decades. In addition to extraordinary citation totals, the ISI Citation Laureates have routinely written multiple high-impact articles - the most influential papers in specific fields of the sciences and social sciences, again, as reflected by citation counts.
