This is Tye\u2019s fifth, Shaw\u2019s third and Panda\u2019s first time receiving the designation. Additionally, Ecker appeared in two separate categories: \u201cplant and animal science\u201d and \u201cmolecular biology and genetics\u201d and is one of 3.4 percent of researchers selected in two fields. Joseph Nery, a research assistant II in the Ecker lab, was also included on the list.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis list identifies and celebrates exceptional individual researchers at the Salk Institute who are having a significant impact on the research community as evidenced by the rate at which their work is being cited by their peers. The research they have contributed is fueling the innovation, sustainability, health and security that is key for our society\u2019s future,\u201d says David Pendlebury, senior citation analyst at the Institute for Scientific Information at Clarivate.<\/p>\n<p>Such consistent production of highly cited reports indicates that the work of these researchers has been repeatedly judged by their peers to be of notable significance and utility, as based on data from the Web of Science, the world\u2019s largest publisher-neutral citation index, with almost\u00a02.1 billion\u00a0cited references going back to 1900.\u00a0This year\u2019s list, which includes 6,602 researchers from more than 70 countries, recognizes researchers across multiple fields whose citation records position them in the highest ranks of influence.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Joanne Chory<\/strong><br \/>\nChory is a professor in, and director of, Salk\u2019s Plant Molecular and Cellular Biology Laboratory, a Howard Hughes Medical Institute investigator, and holder of the Howard H. and Maryam R.

Chory&#8217;s awards include the L\u2019Oreal-UNESCO Women in Science Award, the Gruber Genetics Prize, the Breakthrough Prize in Life Sciences, the Princess of Asturias Award and the Pearl Meister Greengard Prize.

He is also the Salk International Council Chair in Genetics. He was the first to show that the epigenome is highly dynamic in brain cells during the transition from birth to adulthood. Ecker is the recipient of multiple recent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salk.edu\/zh\/news-release\/salk-scientists-lead-25-million-initiative-develop-atlas-brain-cell-types\/\">National Institutes of Health BRAIN Initiative grant<\/a>s, and he is charting the epigenetic differences between brain cell types to better understand disorders such as schizophrenia and Alzheimer\u2019s disease.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u9c81\u65af\u8482\u00b7\u76d6\u5947<\/strong><br \/>\nGage, a professor in the Laboratory of Genetics and holder of the Vi and John Adler Chair for Research on Age-Related Neurodegenerative Disease, is the president of the Salk Institute. He discovered that the adult brain continues to produce new neurons throughout the life span in a process known as neurogenesis. Most recently, he and a team of Salk researchers were awarded an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salk.edu\/zh\/news-release\/salk-awarded-19-2-million-by-the-american-heart-association-allen-initiative-to-study-alzheimers-and-aging-in-the-brain\/\">American Heart Association-Allen Initiative in Brain Health<\/a>\u00a0grant to pursue a new collaborative approach to understanding, detecting and potentially treating Alzheimer\u2019s disease and age-related cognitive decline.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u8428\u5947\u8fbe\u5357\u8fbe\u00b7\u6f58\u8fbe\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\nPanda is a professor in the Regulatory Biology Laboratory and holder of the Rita and Richard Atkinson Chair. He seeks to uncover the links between our circadian clock and health. His lab discovered that confining caloric consumption to an 8-to12-hour period might stave off high cholesterol, diabetes, obesity, and liver disease. Panda was among the researchers who discovered the essential function of a blue-light-sensitive protein, melanopsin, in regulating\u00a0our circadian clock, sleep and alertness and, more recently, his lab discovered that\u00a0almost every gene in our\u00a0genome turns\u00a0on and off in different organs at specific times during the 24-hour day.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u9c81\u672c-\u8096<\/strong><br \/>\nShaw, a professor in the Molecular and Cell Biology Laboratory and holder of the William R.

He discovered that a gene frequently mutated in cancer regulates an enzyme that is critical for the therapeutic benefit of metformin, which is currently the most widely used frontline type 2 diabetes medication. Shaw continues to work on how nutrient deprivation and cellular energy levels control cancer and other diseases.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u51ef\u6cf0<\/strong><br \/>\nTye is a professor in Salk\u2019s Systems Neurobiology Laboratory, holder of the Wylie Vale Chair, and a Howard Hughes Medical Institute investigator. She\u00a0seeks to understand the neural-circuit basis of emotion that leads to motivated behaviors such as social interaction, reward-seeking and avoidance. She recently published a seminal paper describing her\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.salk.edu\/zh\/news-release\/brain-biomarker-predicts-compulsive-drinking\/\">discovery of a brain circuit that controls alcohol drinking<\/a>\u00a0behavior in mice and can be used as a biomarker for predicting the development of compulsive drinking later on.
