Abstract
The Journal of Comparative Physiology A is the premier peer-reviewed scientific journal in comparative physiology, in particular sensory physiology, neurophysiology, and neuroethology. Founded in 1924 by Karl von Frisch and Alfred Kühn, it celebrates its 100th anniversary in 2024. During these 100 years, many of the landmark achievements in these disciplines were published in this journal. To commemorate these accomplishments, we have compiled a list of the Top 100 Authors over these 100 years, representing approximately 1% of all its authors. To select these individuals, three performance criteria were applied: number of publications, total number of citations attracted by these articles, and mean citation rate of the papers published by each author. The resulting list of the Top 100 Authors provides a fascinating insight into the history of the disciplines covered by the Journal of Comparative Physiology A and into the academic careers of many of their leading representatives.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Comparative Physiology A welcomes original articles, short reviews, and short communications in the following fields:
- Neurobiology and neuroethology
- Sensory physiology and ecology
- Physiological and hormonal basis of behavior
- Communication, orientation, and locomotion
- Functional imaging and neuroanatomy
Contributions should add to our understanding of mechanisms and not be purely descriptive. The level of organization addressed may be organismic, cellular, or molecular.
