So fun to read this today, Mike. I just found a note on my desk with ideas and leads you gave me last time we saw each other. Still really valuable. It’s so nice that we can help each other out. I can’t wait to listen to Science Stories ! 🙂

UPDATE! I have now updated the top 50 list following suggestions from some of you regarding scientists that I had missed in my original post. As a result, some of the original top 50 are now between 50 and 56, and are thereby dubbed as ‘up-and-coming’. A big thanks to everyone, for the many comments via Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, text message, and in person, with suggestions for new names. They are all on my macro list which now has 150. The next iteration is scheduled for the summer of 2020 and will be drawn from this macro list. If you have a suggestion for a scientist (you?) who is not on the list, but should be, then please let me know / best Mike

Hi, nice ranking! Based on my calculations I should be on the list as #50 with 1230 Twitter and 785 LinkedIn followers. My index is 8,92. 🙂

Thanks for your comment Douglas. I don’t agree. I think LinkedIn offers benefits. Both on its own, and in conjunction with Twitter. The search functionality is very powerful, and has many research networking applications. And the platform is ideal for forging relationships with people outside your own niche field, and outside academia. As for how my top 50 fares on H-index: I looked into it, but haven’t compared my top 50 systematically with another sample of researchers. I would leave the Kardashian formula for that! Also: The trouble with H-index for the sample is that it is so biased against the human and social sciences. So I deliberately delimited this ranking to social media following. best Mike
