World's Top 2% Scientists: Stanford/Elsevier
Prof. Mohammad Sultan Khuroo
The Hope and Hype.
On 19th September 2025, Stanford/Elsevier published the 8th version of the World's 2% Scientists 2025. The media has become frenetic in publishing the names of the Top 2% Scientists. Various institutions take pride in their share of the World's Top 2% Scientists from their faculty. Why not? It is a proud moment for both the scientist and the Institution to carry this honor.
In this state of hype, I wanted to share my contribution regarding the World's Top 2% Scientists from its inception. Alhamdulillah, I have consistently maintained a position around 22,000 among over 2 lakh scientists worldwide. In the subfield of Gastroenterology & Hepatology, my position has varied from 108 to 353. Among my colleagues in India, I rank second in the subfield of Gastroenterology & Hepatology.
The citations and the h-index accrued over this period are the result of the team at Dr. Khuroo's Medical Clinic, at Qamarwari, Srinagar. However, I continue to give credit to the Sher-I-Kashmir Institute of Medical Sciences, Srinagar, which I left around 30 years ago.

Remembering Dr. Aziz Hajini.
Sunday, 14 September 2025, at Tagore Hall, Srinagar.
Halqa-e-Adab Sonawari Hajin.
It was a great honor for me to join and be the guest of honor at the inaugural session of a high-caliber literacy function held at Tagore Hall, Srinagar (a prominent cultural center located in Gogji Bagh, Srinagar).
Dr. Aziz Hajini, PhD (born Abdul Aziz Parray, 7 March 1957 – 11 September 2021) was a Kashmiri writer, poet, critic, and convenor of Sahitya Akademi for New Delhi's Northern Regional Board.
His monumental literary work in Kashmiri set a benchmark for excellence and authenticity. As the Secretary of the Jammu & Kashmir Academy of Art, Culture, and Languages, he did not merely hold an office; he ignited a renaissance, setting a standard of unparalleled work that revitalized the institution as a true cradle of Kashmiri heritage.
In today's function, Tagore Hall reverberated with all these themes.
