The Geneva Association

What is The Geneva Association known for in research?

The fields where it stands highest, over all time, ranked among every institution above the floor in each field.

Each strip is that field's whole ranked pool, with the notch where The Geneva Association sits in it, in the colour of the band that rank falls in. The track under the rate is the rate itself: it carries no average mark, because the average differs by field (from about 6% in Dentistry to 21% in Economics).

Which fields of science does The Geneva Association work in?

In 2022-now, 39% of research at The Geneva Association is in Health Sciences, 27% in Social Sciences. Its largest fields are Medicine (30%), Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (10%), Psychology (10%). It does 1.6× the world's share of Health Sciences.
