Nitric oxide researcher Salvador Moncada easily trumps the competition in a tally of citation rates this decade among researchers in the United Kingdom. One paper alone--a 1991 report with Richard M. J. Palmer--has been cited 6500 times, according to the Institute for Scientific Information in Philadelphia. In physical sciences, the most cited is Richard Friend, who does research on light-emitting polymers.
