Top 2% Researchers List – Indian Subset

The top 2% list of Researchers is out again. have created a publicly available database of top-cited scientists that provides standardized information on citations, h-index, co-authorship adjusted hm-index, citations to papers in different authorship positions and a composite indicator (c-score). Separate data are shown for career-long and single recent year impact. Metrics with and without self-citations, ratio of citations to citing papers, retracted papers (based on Retraction Watch database) and citations to/from retracted papers are also shown to facilitate mapping of potential research integrity issues. Scientists are classified into 20 scientific fields and 174 sub-fields (Science-Metrix classification).

Choosing Between Wireless Bridges, Outdoor Access Points and 4G/5G Routers for Remote Business Connectivity

A wireless bridge links two fixed locations, an outdoor access point serves Wi-Fi devices across an open area, and a 4G/5G router brings internet service to a site through a mobile network.

Case Study – Gendered Culture at BrightWave Advertising

1. The Spark Behind the Investigation

In March 2025, a confidential report landed on the desk of Meera Sanyal, an independent organizational consultant and workplace culture investigator.
