Introduction

Young researchers contribute to the development of academic disciplines through investigation, publication, collaboration, and evidence-based practice. In nursing, research activity can support improvements in clinical knowledge, healthcare delivery, education, and population health. The Young Researcher Award provides a framework for recognizing developing scholarly profiles based on documented academic activity and research engagement. [1]

Research Profile

The available bibliometric record associates the researcher with Wolaita Sodo University in Ethiopia and identifies Nursing as the principal subject area. The Scopus author identifier is 58189025000, with three recorded documents, fourteen citations, and an h-index of three. [1] The ORCID identifier 0000-0001-6480-2027 provides an additional persistent scholarly identifier. [2]

Research Contributions

The documented research record demonstrates early-stage scholarly activity within nursing and health sciences. Three indexed documents and fourteen citations indicate that the published work has achieved measurable visibility within the Scopus database. Such activity can contribute to professional knowledge while establishing a foundation for continued research development and academic collaboration. [4]

Publications

The Scopus profile records three documents for the researcher. The available information does not provide sufficient bibliographic details to responsibly reproduce individual publication titles, journal names, publication years, or DOI identifiers. Accordingly, the publication record is represented through the verified author-level bibliometric information rather than through unsupported publication-specific claims.[3]

Research Impact

Research impact can be assessed through multiple dimensions, including scholarly citations, dissemination, collaboration, practical relevance, and contribution to professional knowledge. The profile records fourteen citations and an h-index of three in Scopus, providing measurable indicators of early scholarly visibility. These metrics should be interpreted in relation to career stage and disciplinary publishing patterns.[5]

Award Suitability

The documented profile is relevant to a Young Researcher Award because it reflects active scholarly participation in Nursing, a recognized health sciences discipline. The combination of institutional affiliation, indexed publications, citations, h-index, and persistent ORCID identification provides objective information that can support an academic recognition assessment. [1] [2]

Conclusion

The Young Researcher Award profile presents an emerging nursing research record affiliated with Wolaita Sodo University, Ethiopia. Three Scopus documents, fourteen citations, and an h-index of three indicate an established but developing publication and citation record. [1] The associated ORCID further supports scholarly identification and discoverability. [2]

Introduction

Nursing research contributes to evidence-based healthcare, professional education, clinical practice, and health-system development. Academic profiles can be described using publication records and citation indicators, although such measures provide only one dimension of research assessment. The supplied Scopus information establishes the quantitative basis for this profile. [1]

Research Profile

Shiferaw is affiliated with Wolaita Sodo University in Ethiopia and is represented in Scopus through Author . The supplied record reports three documents, 13 citations, and an h-index of 2. The ORCID identifier provides an additional persistent mechanism for scholarly identification. [1] [2]

Research Contributions

The researcher’s documented subject area is Nursing, indicating an academic profile situated within the health sciences and nursing discipline. The available bibliometric record demonstrates indexed scholarly activity, while assessment of specific research contributions would require review of individual publications, study designs, findings, collaborations, and relevance to nursing practice or health outcomes. [1]

Publications

The supplied Scopus profile reports three documents associated with Author . This record establishes a measurable publication presence in indexed scholarly literature. Specific article titles, journals, publication dates, co-authors, and DOI identifiers were not supplied; consequently, individual publications and DOI records are not attributed here without bibliographic verification.
