Job application: What are "scientific highlights"? A job opening for a tenure track position specifies that the application must include "scientific highlights".

Now I am puzzled by this. I've applied before for tenure-track positions, and I've never heard of such a thing.
I don't get the difference with other more standard ingredients of an application, such as research statement, list of publications, cv, cover letter; this is even more puzzling because these latter standard ingredients are also specifically required in this job advert. 

Any clue?
Here are some interpretations: 

What are your top academic achievements?

If we ask a random person in your community, what will they know you for? 

What are your selected publications (ones you’re most proud of)?

Did you win any awards or fellowships? What for?

The department wants to hire people whose work is outstanding in some way- they want to know how you are outstanding.
