One of the leading academic platforms for researchers, Research.com, has officially released its prestigious annual ranking of the Best Scientists for 2025. Once again, UKMC's very own Professor Olivier Sparagano has earned a prominent place on the list, recognised for his continued excellence and ground-breaking contributions to the scientific community.

In the latest rankings, Professor Sparagano is honoured as #22 in China for Animal Sciences and Veterinary, and #838 worldwide, placing him among the top echelon of scientists in his field.

Throughout his career, Professor Sparagano has been at the forefront of research into haemoparasites, ticks, and zoonotic pathogens. He has published widely cited studies, including his landmark paper “Simultaneous detection of Anaplasma and Ehrlichia species in ruminants”, which has been cited nearly 200 times.

Prof Sparagano's recent publications on issues such as the microbiomes of poultry mites and the persistent impact of red mite infestations in the European egg industry underscore his relevance in both academic and applied veterinary science domains.

This recognition from Research.com not only reflects Professor Sparagano’s influential body of work but also highlights his sustained contributions to addressing pressing challenges in animal science, food security, and One Health.

UKMC proudly celebrates this achievement, recognising it as not only a personal milestone for Professor Sparagano but also a reflection of our institution’s commitment to world-class learning. As he continues to push the boundaries of knowledge in Animal Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, Professor Sparagano's work will undoubtedly inspire the next generation of scientists and contribute meaningfully to a healthier, more sustainable future.
