The Research Magazine uses an “impact score” to rate all researchers and institutions in each field, taking into account both the quality of the research (by examining only top journals in each field) and the impact of the research (judged by the number of citations).
Detailed analysis for the awards is undertaken by talent discovery and research analytics firm League of Scholars, which is The Australian’s partner in producing the Research Magazine.
Professor Guymer is renowned for her contributions to our knowledge of age-related macular degeneration, which have helped lead to new treatments capable of preventing vision loss.
