Countries citing papers authored by Péter Vollenweider
This map shows the geographic impact of Péter Vollenweider's research. It shows the number of citations coming from papers published by authors working in each country. You can also color the map by specialization and compare the number of citations received by Péter Vollenweider with the expected number of citations based on a country's size and research output (numbers larger than one mean the country cites Péter Vollenweider more than expected).
Fields of papers citing papers by Péter Vollenweider
This network shows the impact of papers produced by Péter Vollenweider. Nodes represent research fields, and links connect fields that are likely to share authors. Colored nodes show fields that tend to cite the papers produced by Péter Vollenweider. The network helps show where Péter Vollenweider may publish in the future.

Rankless uses publication and citation data sourced from OpenAlex, an open and comprehensive bibliographic database. While OpenAlex provides broad and valuable coverage of the global research landscape, it—like all bibliographic datasets—has inherent limitations. These include incomplete records, variations in author disambiguation, differences in journal indexing, and delays in data updates. As a result, some metrics and network relationships displayed in Rankless may not fully capture the entirety of a scholar's output or impact.
