The Universitat Jaume I of Castelló has been included in the list of highly cited researchers worldwide with three outstanding professors: Iván Mora-Seró, Juan Bisquert and Víctor Flors, according to the latest edition of the Highly Cited Researchers ranking, produced annually by the American company Clarivate Analytics.

Professors Juan Bisquert and Iván Mora-Seró, from the field of chemistry, belong to the Institute of Advanced Materials (INAM), which places this research structure at a high level of international recognition. Víctor Flors, linked to the science of plants and animals, is a researcher of the Department of Agricultural Sciences and the Natural Environment. All three are among the most outstanding scientists in the 2021 edition after having published the most cited articles in the last ten years.

Juan Bisquert is professor of Applied Physics and director of the Institute of Advanced Materials. He has more than 400 publications in research journals and a series of reference books, *Physics of Solar Cells* and *Nanostructured Energy Devices*. He is a senior editor of the *Journal of Physical Chemistry Letter*s and a member of the advisory board of *Energy & Environmental Science*. He has 39,000 citations and an h-index of 100. He conducts experimental and theoretical research on materials and devices for clean energy production and storage. His main topics of interest are materials and processes in perovskite solar cells and solar fuel production.

Iván Mora-Seró is a researcher in the Department of Physics and head of the Advanced Semiconductor Group at the Institute of Advanced Materials. He won the Idea prize in the 2011 edition in the category of physicochemical sciences, has published more than 230 articles that have received more than 22,000 citations and his h-index is 67. In 2016 he was awarded a fellowship by the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel. His research focuses on new concepts for photovoltaic conversion and light emission (LEDs and light amplifiers) based on nanoscale devices and semiconductor materials (quantum dots and halide perovskites). In the 2016 call for proposals, he won a Consolidator Grant from the European Research Council (ERC) of two million euros to develop the No Limit project for five years.

Víctor Flors belongs to the Metabolic Integration and Cell Signaling research group. He has more than 10,000 citations, more than a hundred publications and an h-index of 46. He is a reviewer for scientific publications such as *Nature Chemical Biology, Plant Physiology* or *New Phytologist*, among others, and coordinator of the Induced Resistance Group of the International Organisation for Biological and Integrated Control (IOBC). His main lines of research focus on the plant immune system and its interaction with the environment and on the conditioning mechanisms of the plant immune system known as "defence priming". It has numerous public projects and collaborations with the private sector with a notable involvement in the transfer to the productive sector, as well as in fundamental research.

Highly Cited Researchers identifies influential scientists who have gained consistent recognition through a high number of citations. In this edition, more than 6,600 researchers in 21 fields of science and social science have been selected on the basis of the number of highly cited articles they have published from January 2010 to December 2020. The methodology is based on data and analysis conducted by bibliometric experts at the Institute for Scientific Information at Clarivate. It uses InCites Benchmarking & Analytics, Essential Science Indicators and a unique compilation of scientific performance metrics and trend data based on academic publication counts and citation data from Web of Science, where it only takes into account highly cited papers, those articles with exceptional impact that rank in the top 1% of citations by scientific field and year. Of the 6,600 researchers, 3,774 are recognised for their performance in specific fields and some 2,828 for their performance in several fields.
