Keywords

Ali Al-Shamli; Research Excellence Award; Public Health; Sohar University; Oman; scholarly publications; citation analysis; research impact; bibliometrics; academic recognition; The Scientist Global Awards; research assessment.

Introduction

Academic recognition programmes provide a framework for highlighting researchers’ contributions and encouraging continued scholarly engagement. Research excellence, however, is multidimensional. Publication and citation indicators can help describe research activity, but their meaning varies by discipline, publication age, collaboration patterns, and citation practices. Responsible research assessment therefore combines quantitative evidence with qualitative examination of the work itself. [3] [4]

Research Profile

Ali Al-Shamli is identified in the supplied information as being affiliated with Sohar University in Oman, with Public Health listed as the subject area. The researcher’s bibliographic identity is associated with Scopus Author ID 38960897200 and ORCID 0000-0001-6187-4009. These identifiers support discovery and differentiation of scholarly records across academic platforms. Researchers and readers should consult the respective profiles to verify current affiliation details, publication records, and any subsequent changes to the indexed information. [1] [2]

Research Contributions

The supplied information identifies Public Health as the researcher’s subject area but does not provide a verified list of individual studies or their findings. Consequently, specific projects, research methods, public health interventions, or policy outcomes cannot be attributed to Ali Al-Shamli on the basis of the available profile details alone. A reliable account of research contributions would require reviewing the researcher’s indexed publications and the evidence reported in each work. [3] [4]

Publications

The supplied Scopus profile information reports 12 documents associated with the researcher. This figure represents the reported indexed document count and does not, by itself, indicate the types of documents, their individual publication dates, or their subject-specific findings. The Scopus author profile is the primary supplied reference for examining the associated bibliographic record. [1]

Research Impact

The supplied bibliometric profile reports 114 citations and an h-index of 5. Citation counts provide a quantitative indication of how often indexed scholarly works have been cited within a particular database. The h-index combines publication productivity and citation frequency by identifying a set of papers that have each received at least a corresponding number of citations. These measures can help describe a research record, but neither captures every dimension of academic quality or societal benefit. [1] [5]

Award Suitability

The Research Excellence Award recognition theme is relevant to an academic profile that documents research activity, scholarly outputs, and potential contributions to a scientific discipline. For Ali Al-Shamli, the supplied information establishes an institutional affiliation, a Public Health subject classification, and bibliometric indicators of 12 documents, 114 citations, and an h-index of 5. These details can form part of an initial profile review but are not sufficient, on their own, to determine eligibility, merit, or award selection. [1] [6]

Conclusion

A comprehensive evaluation of research excellence should extend beyond bibliometric indicators to include publication quality, methodological rigor, originality, research integrity, and documented relevance to public health. The Research Excellence Award theme provides a context for organizing these considerations, while any formal award decision must be established through verified programme information. [1]

Keywords

Public Health, Public Health Research, Health Policy, Population Health, Health Promotion, Disease Prevention, Clinical and Public Health, Health Innovation

Introduction

Public health is concerned with protecting and improving the health of populations through prevention, health promotion, surveillance, research, policy development, and coordinated health services. Contemporary public health research extends beyond individual clinical outcomes to consider population-level determinants and inequalities in health. The World Health Organization’s work on social determinants of health has emphasized the importance of conditions in which people are born, grow, live, work, and age when understanding health outcomes. [2]

Research Profile

The available bibliometric profile identifies Diana Kalnina with Scopus Author ID 57970580500. The record contains six documents and five citations, with an h-index of 1.

[1]

Research Contributions

The documented subject classification places Kalnina’s research within Public Health. On the basis of the available profile data, the record can be situated within several broad research functions that are central to the field: These areas describe the broader scholarly context of the Public Health subject category and should not be interpreted as a claim that every listed activity is independently documented as a specific research contribution of Kalnina. [2]

Publications

The available Scopus information records six documents associated with Diana Kalnina’s author profile. Because complete publication titles, journal information, publication years, authorship details, and DOI records were not supplied with the profile data, individual publications are not reproduced here to avoid attributing works that cannot be independently identified from the provided information. [1] [3]

Research Impact

The profile records five citations and an h-index of 1. Bibliometric indicators such as citation counts and h-index values are useful for describing indexed scholarly visibility, but they do not independently measure the practical, clinical, societal, or policy impact of public health research. Interpretation of research impact is strengthened when bibliometric evidence is considered alongside research use, implementation, collaboration, policy contribution, and other documented outcomes. [1]

Award Suitability

Innovation in public health can encompass the development of new evidence, methods, technologies, analytical approaches, prevention strategies, healthcare models, or implementation practices. Assessment of a specific innovation should consider the underlying research outputs and documented evidence of originality, application, and impact. The information available for this profile establishes the research field and bibliometric record but does not provide sufficient detail to make specific claims about the nature or magnitude of an individual innovation. [1]
