General Description
"International Review of Cell & Molecular Biology"
(IRCMB)
presents comprehensive reviews and current
advances in cell and molecular biology, both plant and animal. The IRCMB series
has a world-wide readership, maintaining a high standard by publishing invited
articles on important and timely topics authored by prominent cell and
molecular biologists. According to recent citation statistics compiled by the
Institute for Scientific Information (ISI), articles published in IRCMB have
high impact points and an average cited half-life of 9 years. IRCMB ranked high
among publications in the "Cell Biology" section of their Journal
Citation Reports. In the ISI survey, IRCMB ranked 22 out of 147 items in the
"Cell Biology" section of their Journal Citation Reports in terms of
"non-self" citations. The series was founded by the late Professors
G. H. Bourne and J. F. Danielli in 1952 as the International Review of Cytology, and it
was renamed as IRCMB in 2008 to reflect the series’ scope. Currently 6 - 8
hard-bound volumes are published each year, together with online publications
on ScienceDirect. Occasionally, thematic volumes
covering one special topic each have also been published.
