The competition commission for the selection of winners of the prizes of the regional state administration and the regional council decided on the winners among the scientists who participated in the competition. The Lviv Honorary Ambassador Roman Lesyk was elected as the Chairman of the Contest Commission.

The competition started in early September, so the commission received 310 applications. Last year, there were half as many such applications. The Commission, like last year, formed a rating according to clear criteria.

“We took into account all the scientometric indicators to select the winners. That is, the Hirsch index was taken into account by the amount for the Scopus database and for Scholar. The second indicator demonstrated how one scientist or another was published during the previous year, and the total impact factor of the publications was taken into account accordingly. And the third indicator is the age of the nominee, in order to balance the points and allow young scientists to compete, in which, naturally, the Hirsch index could not be high. We keep our balance, because we used a total indicator, and this allowed us to approach different specialties in a balanced way. There are certain competencies of scientists that they should use. We can confidently say: thanks to this competition, the biometrics of Ukrainian science has risen, “said the head of the competition commission, Roman Lesyk.
