Marcelo Cypel
Thoracic surgeon and Surgical Director of the UHN Transplant Program whose research centres on ex vivo lung perfusion and repair of donor lungs.
As of . Primary source: UHN Research profile.
Summary
According to his UHN Research profile, Marcelo Cypel is Surgical Director of the UHN Transplant Program and of the UHN ECLS Program and a Professor in the Department of Surgery at the University of Toronto. His stated research interests include lung perfusion and transplantation, gene and cell therapy to repair injured organs, and lung preservation and repair of injured donor lungs. The profile does not describe CLAD research specifically.
Ranking method and caveats
Methodology for the researcher ranking
- Query: OpenAlex works of type article or review whose title or abstract contains "chronic lung allograft dysfunction" or "restrictive allograft syndrome", or "bronchiolitis obliterans" together with lung transplant terms. Retracted works and meeting-abstract supplements are removed.
- Window and date: works published 2016-10-11 to 2026-10-10; counts retrieved 2026-10-10 (2,461 works, 8,698 author profiles after merging).
- Counting: the rank is by total citations of the author's papers (whole counting). Fractional counts, first or last author papers and counts without the two 2019 ISHLT consensus papers are shown on each record.
- Identity: authors are identified by OpenAlex author identifier and ORCID. Duplicate profiles were merged by identical ORCID, or by compatible name plus shared institution. Only the top 30 entries were checked by hand.
- Rising researchers: a separate numbered list ordered by citations in the 5 years from 2021-10-11, for authors whose first paper in the corpus is dated 2019 or later and who have at least 5 papers in that window. It is a proxy, not a measure of career stage.
- Caveats: the corpus includes papers only partly about CLAD; consensus papers inflate some totals; recent papers are under-cited; author identifiers can be wrong; citations measure attention, not quality or clinical skill.
