Abstract

This article outlines the research profile of Zhiwei Liao in the broad field of Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology. The supplied Scopus metrics report 65 documents, 3,364 citations, and an h-index of 31. These indicators provide quantitative context for evaluating publication activity and citation visibility, but they do not independently establish the quality, originality, or practical significance of individual studies. The ORCID record provides a persistent researcher identifier that can help distinguish the researcher from others with similar names. (1) (2)

Keywords

  • Best Researcher Award
  • Zhiwei Liao
  • Biochemistry
  • Genetics and molecular biology
  • Research impact
  • Scholarly publications
  • Researcher identifiers

Introduction

Academic recognition programs commonly assess research through a combination of scholarly output, field relevance, research quality, originality, and wider contribution. Bibliographic databases help organize publications and citation information, while persistent identifiers support reliable attribution of research outputs. Scopus and ORCID serve different but complementary purposes: Scopus presents indexed publication and citation information, whereas ORCID provides a persistent identifier and researcher-maintained record. (1) (2)

Research Profile

The supplied profile associates Zhiwei Liao with Huazhong University of Science and Technology, China, and identifies Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology as the subject area. The provided Scopus author identifier is 57256472800, and the ORCID iD is 0000-0002-6723-2522. The supplied metrics—65 documents, 3,364 citations, and an h-index of 31—should be treated as profile data provided for this article and checked against the live database before publication. (1) (2)

Research Contributions

Biochemistry, genetics, and molecular biology encompass the investigation of biological molecules, genetic processes, cellular mechanisms, and interactions that influence living systems. Research in these fields can contribute to foundational knowledge and may inform biomedical, biotechnology, and life-science applications. A detailed account of Liao’s specific contributions requires examination of verified publications, abstracts, methods, findings, and independent evidence of use or influence. This article therefore does not attribute particular discoveries or clinical outcomes without supporting source material.

Publications

The supplied Scopus profile lists 65 documents. A publication-level assessment should consider article titles, publication venues, authorship, dates, research methods, and the relevance of each work to the stated subject area. Individual publication titles and DOI identifiers have not been supplied in the input data, so specific papers cannot be reliably listed here. The Scopus author profile is the appropriate starting point for checking indexed records and available citation details. (1)

Research Impact

Citation counts provide one indication of how often indexed publications are cited by other works. The h-index combines publication output and citation frequency, but its interpretation varies across disciplines, career stages, database coverage, and authorship practices. The reported values of 3,364 citations and an h-index of 31 can inform an initial assessment, but should be considered alongside research quality, reproducibility, collaboration, and broader scholarly or societal relevance. (3)

Award Suitability

The supplied publication and citation indicators may be relevant to consideration for a Best Researcher Award. A balanced evaluation by the International Academic Achievements & Awards should also examine documented research originality, methodological rigor, publication quality, field-specific influence, ethical research practice, and evidence supporting the nominee’s individual contributions. The metrics alone should not be treated as confirmation of an award decision. Eligibility and recognition should be determined according to the event’s published criteria and review process.

Conclusion

Zhiwei Liao’s supplied profile records research activity in Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology, with an affiliation at Huazhong University of Science and Technology in China. The reported Scopus metrics offer a quantitative overview of scholarly output and citation visibility. For a reliable academic recognition profile, these indicators should be verified against the current Scopus record and considered together with the researcher’s publications, contributions, and supporting evidence. The linked Scopus and ORCID records provide starting points for further verification.
