Research.com bases its rankings of scientists on transparent procedures based on well-established metrics gathered from trusted sources of data. Every year, they list and rank all the researchers internationally and in all research fields with a D-index (Discipline h-index) metric of 30 or more.
According to Research.com, Prof Von Solms has a D-index of 40 and 7805 citations.
