Bangladesh field strengths in the Top 2% Scientists list 2026: Clinical Medicine leads with 76
Live Directory analytics: Clinical Medicine lists 76 Bangladesh Top 2% scientists in the 2026 single-year profile — 21.9% of the Bangladesh cohort, ahead of ICT (50) and Enabling Technologies (42).
What are Bangladesh’s strongest fields on the Top 2% Scientists list?
Direct answer: In the Bangladesh country profile (single-year 2026), Clinical Medicine is the largest field with 76 listed Top 2% scientists — 21.9% of the Bangladesh list (347). The next fields are Information & Communication Technologies (50), Enabling & Strategic Technologies (42), Physics & Astronomy (38), and Chemistry (30).
That Clinical Medicine figure is a live re-check of the historical 76 count on the Bangladesh directory hub: the 2026 single-year top_fields panel still reads Clinical Medicine, 76.
Bangladesh top fields (single-year 2026)
| Field | Listed scholars | Share of Bangladesh list |
|---|---|---|
| Clinical Medicine | 76 | 21.9% |
| Information & Communication Technologies | 50 | 14.4% |
| Enabling & Strategic Technologies | 42 | 12.1% |
| Physics & Astronomy | 38 | 11.0% |
| Chemistry | 30 | 8.6% |
| Agriculture, Fisheries & Forestry | 25 | 7.2% |
| Earth & Environmental Sciences | 22 | 6.3% |
| Engineering | 20 | 5.8% |
Stat sentence: 76 of 347 Bangladesh-listed scholars are in Clinical Medicine.
The country’s #1 scholar is not in that volume field. Hasanuzzaman, Mirza is listed under Biology / Plant Biology & Botany. Biology is not in the eight-field top_fields panel; the related subfield Plant Biology & Botany has 16 scholars.
Bangladesh vs India vs Pakistan — different field shapes
| Field | Bangladesh | Pakistan | India |
|---|---|---|---|
| Clinical Medicine | 76 | 140 | 1,250 |
| ICT | 50 | 108 | 867 |
| Enabling & Strategic Technologies | 42 | 118 | 1,297 |
| Physics & Astronomy | 38 | 140 | 685 |
| Chemistry | 30 | 170 | 917 |
| National total | 347 (0.14%) | 1,030 (0.42%) | 6,940 (2.81%) |
India’s country profile is Enabling & Strategic Technologies–led (1,297), then Clinical Medicine (1,250). Pakistan is Chemistry–led (170). Bangladesh is Clinical Medicine–led, but that slice (76) is smaller than Pakistan’s Chemistry cohort alone. See the India hub and Pakistan hub.
Bangladesh’s national share is 0.14% of the single-year country-analytics cohort (247,376 researchers; 170 countries). India is 2.81%; Pakistan is 0.42%.
Bangladesh subfields inside the clinical / ICT / physics core
| Subfield | Listed scholars |
|---|---|
| General & Internal Medicine | 34 |
| Artificial Intelligence & Image Processing | 33 |
| Applied Physics | 29 |
| Environmental Sciences | 21 |
| Energy | 17 |
| Plant Biology & Botany | 16 |
| Medicinal & Biomolecular Chemistry | 14 |
| Networking & Telecommunications | 14 |
General & Internal Medicine (34) and AI & Image Processing (33) sit almost side by side. Plant Biology & Botany (16) is the subfield of the national #1 scholar.
Single-year vs career field counts
Career Bangladesh still leads with Clinical Medicine (31 of 105). The career file is smaller than single-year — do not import the USA habit of treating career as the larger list. Use how to find, verify, and cite before mixing the two listings in one sentence.
