To overcome limitations of previously developed scientific productivity ranking services, we created the Biomedical Informatics Researchers ranking website (rank.informatics-review.com). The website is composed of four key components that work together to create the automatically updating ranking website: 1) list of biomedical informatics researchers, 2) Google Scholar scraper, 3) display page, and 4) updater. The interactive website has facilitated identification of leaders in each of the key citation statistics categories (i.e., number of citations, h-index, and i10-index), and it has allowed other groups, such as tenure and promotions committees, to more effectively and efficiently evaluate researchers and interpret the various citation statistics reported by candidates. Creation of the biomedical informatics researcher ranking website highlights the vast differences in scholarly productivity among members of the biomedical informatics research community. Future efforts are underway to add new functionality to the website and to expand the work to identify top papers in biomedical informatics.
为克服先前开发的科研生产力排名服务的局限性，我们创建了生物医学信息学研究人员排名网站（rank.informatics-review.com）。该网站由四个关键组件组成，它们协同工作以创建自动更新的排名网站：1）生物医学信息学研究人员列表，2）谷歌学术爬虫，3）显示页面，以及4）更新器。这个交互式网站有助于识别每个关键引用统计类别（即引用次数、h指数和i10指数）中的领军人物，并且使诸如终身教职和晋升委员会等其他团体能够更有效、更高效地评估研究人员，并解读候选人报告的各种引用统计数据。生物医学信息学研究人员排名网站的创建凸显了生物医学信息学研究群体成员在学术生产力方面的巨大差异。目前正在努力为该网站添加新功能，并扩大工作范围以识别生物医学信息学领域的顶尖论文。
