| Summary: | Following the editorial series presented in ACS Catalysis in 2020, I investigated the gender distribution in highly cited ACS Catalysis papers, which you might find interesting. As a main result, I found that from the 155 highly cited papers that showed up in my analysis, only 15 papers have female corresponding author(s) (9.7%), and only 5 of these 15 papers have solely female corresponding author(s) (3.2%). I also analyzed geographical distribution based on citation metrics and found that small countries, such as Cyprus, Greece, Iceland, and Ireland, or developing countries, such as Mexico, South Africa, Thailand, and Vietnam, provide significant contributions to ACS Catalysis, larger than Canada or UK. |
