Introduction

Researcher recognition programmes provide a framework for acknowledging scholarly activity, research contributions and the potential significance of academic work. In health-related fields, research can inform clinical understanding, healthcare delivery, diagnostic approaches and the development of evidence-based practices. A fair assessment therefore benefits from combining quantitative indicators with qualitative examination of publications and their relevance to the intended field. [3]

The supplied profile associates Miquel Blasco Pelicano with Hospital Clínic in Spain and categorizes the profile under Health Professions. A Scopus author identifier and an ORCID identifier are included to facilitate verification and distinguish the researcher from individuals with similar names. Author identifiers are useful for consolidating records, although profile attribution and institutional details should be checked for accuracy and completeness. [1]

Research Contributions

A reliable description of an individual’s research contributions requires examination of their verified publications, research projects, methods, collaborations and documented outcomes. The information supplied for this article establishes a profile for further review but does not specify individual studies, research findings, clinical interventions or patents. Accordingly, no particular scientific discovery or clinical impact is attributed to the researcher here without supporting evidence. [3]

Publications

The supplied profile reports 112 documents associated with the Scopus author identifier 7006946739. This figure has not been independently verified for the purposes of this article. The linked Scopus profile is the appropriate starting point for reviewing publication titles, author lists, source titles, publication years and available citation information. [1]

Research Impact

The supplied bibliometric profile reports 4,800 citations and an h-index of 33. The citation total provides a measure of recorded citations within the database and coverage period used to generate the figure. The h-index represents a combination of publication output and citation frequency: a value of 33 generally means that at least 33 publications have each received at least 33 citations, provided the reported value is accurate and calculated using the stated database’s methodology. [1]

Award Suitability

The profile is prepared in relation to the Best Researcher Award presented within the context of the International Innovator Awards. The reported publication and citation metrics may provide useful quantitative information for an initial assessment, subject to independent verification. A complete award decision should also consider the candidate’s verified research record, the relevance and quality of the work, and the published eligibility and judging criteria of the award programme. [3]

Conclusion

This article organizes the supplied researcher information for Miquel Blasco Pelicano in a Wikipedia-inspired academic profile associated with the Best Researcher Award and the Health Professions subject area.
