### Google Scholar Best Practices
**Finding Seminal Papers**:
**Finding Seminal and High-Impact Papers** (CRITICAL):
Always prioritize papers based on citation count, venue quality, and author reputation:
**Citation Count Thresholds:**
| Paper Age | Citations | Classification |
|-----------|-----------|----------------|
| 0-3 years | 20+ | Noteworthy |
| 0-3 years | 100+ | Highly Influential |
| 3-7 years | 100+ | Significant |
| 3-7 years | 500+ | Landmark Paper |
| 7+ years | 500+ | Seminal Work |
| 7+ years | 1000+ | Foundational |
**Venue Quality Tiers:**
- **Tier 1 (Prefer):** Nature, Science, Cell, NEJM, Lancet, JAMA, PNAS
- **Tier 2 (High Priority):** Impact Factor >10, top conferences (NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR)
- **Tier 3 (Good):** Specialized journals (IF 5-10)
- **Tier 4 (Sparingly):** Lower-impact peer-reviewed venues
**Author Reputation Indicators:**
- Senior researchers with h-index >40
- Multiple publications in Tier-1 venues
- Leadership at recognized institutions
- Awards and editorial positions
**Search Strategies for High-Impact Papers:**
- Sort by citation count (most cited first)
- Look for review articles for overview
- Check "Cited by" for impact assessment
- Use citation alerts for tracking new citations
- Look for review articles from Tier-1 journals for overview
- Check "Cited by" for impact assessment and recent follow-up work
- Use citation alerts for tracking new citations to key papers
- Filter by top venues using `source:Nature` or `source:Science`
- Search for papers by known field leaders using `author:LastName`
