Publications
In 2020 we published 131 articles in journals with an average impact factor of 9,85. In fact, the web application Mapping Scientific Excellence ranked ICIQ third on “Best Paper Rate” (proportion of highly cited papers published by an institution) and first on “Best Journal Rate” (ratio of papers published in the most influential journals) in the field of chemistry worldwide.
Moreover, the Nature Index, ranked ICIQ as the second leading institution in Spain with an index of 25,10.
ICIQ’s privileged position in the rankings confirms the Institute’s strong evolution towards scientific excellence since the beginning of its research activities in 2004. Since then, ICIQ has published around 2,000 scientific articles. In 2020, 77% of the publications were published in the most influential chemical research journals in the world, those ranked in the first quartile (Q1- journals within the top 25% of journals with highest IF).
ICIQ is committed to facilitating access to the research carried out at the Institute. Thus, we follow a policy of publishing the results of our research in Open Access as a way to promote the dissemination of knowledge and innovation. Our publications are available in the Open Access Recercat (CSUC) repository.
