Gerd Schatzmayr, R&D director at Biomin, was named a highly cited researcher, according to the 2019 list from the Web of Science Group. The list identifies scientists who produced multiple papers ranking in the top one percent by citations for their field and year of publication, demonstrating significant research influence among their peers.

Schatzmayr has given more than 60 lectures at international scientific congresses and conferences and is author and co-author of more than 100 articles, publications and patents. He joined BIOMIN in 1999, and currently heads BIOMIN’s worldwide research and development activities from the BIOMIN Research Center at the Campus Tulln. “This recognition reflects well on the entire research and development team at BIOMIN and the network of leading academic institutions that we work with globally. It is truly a pleasure to conduct research and publish with so many great scientists,” said Schatzmayr.

Franz Waxenecker, managing director of BIOMIN, said that “we are proud of the BIOMIN Research Center’s activities under Schatzmayr’s leadership. Our longstanding commitment to scientific research forms the basis of our value proposition for the feed and food industry. It is what enables us to offer proprietary, innovative solutions for nutrition, gut performance and mycotoxin risk management. The practical application of these technologies supports healthy, profitable and sustainable animal protein production.”

This year’s list recognizes researchers whose citation records position them in the very highest strata of influence and impact as it includes 23 Nobel laureates, including three announced this year: Gregg L. Semenza of Johns Hopkins University (Physiology or Medicine), John B. Goodenough of the University of Texas at Austin (Chemistry) and Esther Duflo of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (Economics). Also included are 57 Clarivate Analytics Citation Laureates - individuals who, through citation analysis, we have identified as researchers ‘of Nobel class’ and potential Nobel Prize recipients.
