10 Most-Cited Health Law Faculty in the U.S., 2016-2020 (CORRECTED)
Based on the latest Sisk data, here are the ten most-cited law faculty writing on health law in the U.S. for the period 2016-2020 (inclusive) (remember that the data was collected in late May/early June of 2021, and that the pre-2021 database did expand a bit since then). Numbers are rounded to the nearest ten. Faculty for whom roughly 75% or more of their citations (based on a sample) are in this area are listed; others with less than 75% of their citations in this field (but still a plurality) are listed in the category of "other highly cited scholars who work partly in this area." (Thanks to Glenn Cohen and Mark Hall for guidance about this field.)
