Scope/Description:

The Journal strives to publish original work of the highest quality that elucidates basic biological, chemical, or physical mechanisms of broad physiological significance. Apart from general importance, scientific quality, and rigor, the major criteria for acceptance are: originality; definitive mechanistic information; and interest to a broad readership. The Journal publishes articles that strive to understand integrative function through innovative model simulations; conventional theoretical articles will be published only if they deal with subjects about which the Journal often has published experimental studies—or if they are submitted as a companion to an experimental article that depends upon the theoretical article in some significant way.

Impact Factor

Impact factor (IF) is a scientometric factor based on the yearly average number of citations on articles published by a particular journal in the last two years. A journal impact factor is frequently used as a proxy for the relative importance of a journal within its field. Find out more: What is a good impact factor?


III. Other Science Influence Indicators

Any impact factor or scientometric indicator alone will not give you the full picture of a science journal. There are also other factors such as H-Index, Self-Citation Ratio, SJR, SNIP, etc. Researchers may also consider the practical aspect of a journal such as publication fees, acceptance rate, review speed.

H-Index

The h-index is an author-level metric that attempts to measure both the productivity and citation impact of the publications of a scientist or scholar. The index is based on the set of the scientist's most cited papers and the number of citations that they have received in other publications
