Scientists in Denmark – the top 100 on social media in 2020

/2 Comments/by

Who is acing it on the networking sites in the land of Bohr, Holberg and Lehmann?

Research impact is a notoriously difficult thing to measure. The h-index  measures the productivity and citation impact of a scholar: but this index does not take things like education, funding and outreach activities into account.

A Danish physicist, a playwright and historian, and a geologist. OK, so Ludvig Holberg was also Norwegian. (Underlying image: Carsten Wiehe, CC license)

And what about the social media impact of a researcher? My own TwiLi Index offers a measure of it.

After releasing the index for the Greater Copenhagen/Øresund region last week, I now release the index for Denmark.

My TwiLi Index – pronounced like ‘twilight’ without the ‘t’ at the end – ranks academic scholars affiliated to research institutions using a simple, reproducible formula based on their follower numbers on Twitter and LinkedIn. Twitter and LinkedIn are the platforms of choice for researchers and scientists, as they allow networking and interaction with niche audiences throughout the world in highly specialized fields.

You can read about the methodology of the index here.

The index for Denmark and the index for the Greater Copenhagen area partially overlap.

Note that the Greater Copenhagen/Øresund regional index is not a subset of the index for Denmark, as it also includes researchers from the Swedish side of the region. This can be illustrated by the map on the left.

Since I launched the first index, for the Greater Copenhagen / Øresund area in 2019, it has been reviewed in several publications. Some point to its usefulness as one of many measures of researcher success that supplement bibliometric scores, citations, and educational activities.

As can be seen when you browse down the names on the index (below) it is an ‘index for Denmark’ but not a ‘Danish’ index. International scholars are extremely well represented on the top 100.

The Denmark index uses exactly the same methodology as the Greater Copenhagen/Øresund index for 2019 and 2020. In future indices, I plan to include measures of engagement in the algorithm.

Many scientists use social media to communicate their own research and network with other scientists. The platforms extend their reach, let them discuss research with international peers, and serve as a catalyst for inspiration in the research process. Scientists and researchers are often supported in this by university institutions as they each strive to improve their own brand among stakeholders, other scientists and institutions, and the wider public.

If you are a part of the Danish science and research community, my ranking (see below) can serve as inspiration for new contacts. After all, these scientists clearly know what they are doing, at least in terms of social media!

Are you not on the list? This is the first time I try to map out the social media field of scientists and researchers in Denmark. It is partly based on manually extracted data (see methodology here) and I may have missed a few active scientists and researchers who have large followings. If you know someone who should be on this list, (maybe you!), please write below in the comments, or write to mike@mikeyoungacademy.dk. Updated, final, 2020 rankings will be released at the end of September 2020.
