Journal Title：Methods

Methods focuses on rapidly developing techniques in the experimental biological and medical sciences.

Each topical issue, organized by a guest editor who is an expert in the area covered, consists solely of invited quality articles by specialist authors, many of them reviews. Issues are devoted to specific technical approaches with emphasis on clear detailed descriptions of protocols that allow them to be reproduced easily. The background information provided enables researchers to understand the principles underlying the methods; other helpful sections include comparisons of alternative methods giving the advantages and disadvantages of particular methods, guidance on avoiding potential pitfalls, and suggestions for troubleshooting.

《方法》專注于實(shí)驗生物學(xué)和醫(yī)學(xué)科學(xué)中快速發(fā)展的技術(shù)。

每個專題都由一位客座編輯組織，該編輯是所涵蓋領(lǐng)域的專家，僅包含受邀的專業(yè)作者撰寫的高質(zhì)量文章，其中許多是評論。專題專門討論特定的技術(shù)方法，重點(diǎn)是清晰詳細(xì)的協(xié)議描述，以便于重現(xiàn)。提供的背景信息使研究人員能夠理解方法背后的原理；其他有用的部分包括替代方法的比較，給出了特定方法的優(yōu)缺點(diǎn)，避免潛在陷阱的指導(dǎo)以及故障排除的建議。

Methods創(chuàng)刊于1990年，由Academic Press Inc.出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋生物 - 生化研究方法全領(lǐng)域，此刊是中等級別的SCI期刊，所以過審相對來講不是特別難，但是該刊專業(yè)認(rèn)可度不錯，仍然是一本值得選擇的SCI期刊 。平均審稿速度 一般,3-8周 約11.3周，影響因子指數(shù)4.2，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預(yù)警名單，廣大學(xué)者值得一試。
