Introduction

Neuroscience is an interdisciplinary field concerned with the structure and function of the nervous system. Tianjin University is a public research university in China [6]. Liang Rong’s work is attributed to this institution in Scopus. Bibliometric indicators such as publication counts, citation totals, and the h-index are widely used to describe research output, although they offer only a partial view of scholarly contribution.

Research Profile

The researcher is identified in Scopus by Author ID 57214784288 and in the ORCID registry by the identifier 0000-0002-1656-5941 [1][2]. Persistent identifiers of this kind help distinguish researchers with similar names and link their publications to a single record. The profile is classified under the subject area of Neuroscience.

Research Contributions

The researcher’s contributions are recorded as scholarly documents indexed in Scopus within the neuroscience domain [1]. Specific topics, methods, and co-authors are best verified in the full author record. In summary, the profile is characterised by:

  • A sustained publication record of 20 indexed documents.
  • Work attributed to Tianjin University, China.
  • A publicly verifiable ORCID record linking research outputs [2].

Publications

The Scopus record lists 20 documents authored by Liang Rong [1]. Each indexed article carries a Digital Object Identifier (DOI), a persistent link to the published work [5]. Readers can locate individual publications and their DOIs through the sources below:

  • Scopus author record, listing documents and citation data [1].

  • Crossref search results for DOI-registered articles [3].

Research Impact

Scopus reports 192 citations across 20 documents, an average of roughly 9.6 citations per document [1]. An h-index of 8 means that at least eight documents have each received at least eight citations. These figures reflect database coverage at the time of retrieval and may change as new citations are indexed.

Award Suitability

The Best Researcher Award at International Academic Achievements & Awards recognises researchers for scholarly output and contribution to their fields [4].
