According to the Leiden ranking 2024, the University of South Bohemia has the highest percentage of publications (8.7%) in the first decile of the most prestigious journals among Czech universities. Our Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics has contributed to this success in a significant way, as out of 82 articles published by our department since the beginning of 2023 until April 2024, 30% (!) belong to the first decile of journals in the field of biochemistry, genetics and molecular biology (the main author or authors of the vast majority of articles come from our department). By comparison, the world's top universities, MIT or Princeton, have 23% of their articles in the top decile (in specific fields this may be higher). Although the JIF percentile is only one possible indicator of the quality of science, we wish the scientists in our department to maintain this high standard of science!



Our PhD students have made significant contributions to these publications, including those in the first decile, being co-authors on almost half of them, and even first authors on a fifth, including the most prestigious publication.
