How to publish in this journal

Scope

RSC Chemical Biology is a gold open access journal dedicated to publishing and disseminating exceptional, breakthrough research and high quality reviews at the interface of chemistry and biology. All published articles must be of significant general interest to the broad chemical biology community. We welcome contributions from across the breadth of chemical biology, from the development of new chemical and biological techniques and tools, to studies furthering the understanding and/or manipulation of biological processes at the molecular level. We also encourage translational research that bridges chemistry and chemical biology to medicine. Topics include but are not limited to: • Analytical methods (including sensing, imaging, spectroscopy, omics) • Bioorthogonal chemistry • Biosynthesis, biomimetics and bioengineering • Chemical synthesis and synthetic biology • Directed evolution • Drugs and small molecules (including prodrugs) • Glycoscience • Lipids • Natural products • Nucleic acids (including DNA, RNA, mRNA and siRNA, modifications and gene delivery) • Peptides • Phenotypic screening • Proteins (including protein-protein interactions, modifications, structure and function) Join the conversation about this journal
Quartiles

The set of journals have been ranked according to their SJR and divided into four equal groups, four quartiles. Q1 (green) comprises the quarter of the journals with the highest values, Q2 (yellow) the second highest values, Q3 (orange) the third highest values and Q4 (red) the lowest values.

SJR

The SJR is a size-independent prestige indicator that ranks journals by their 'average prestige per article'. It is based on the idea that 'all citations are not created equal'. SJR is a measure of scientific influence of journals that accounts for both the number of citations received by a journal and the importance or prestige of the journals where such citations come from It measures the scientific influence of the average article in a journal, it expresses how central to the global scientific discussion an average article of the journal is.

Citations per document

This indicator counts the number of citations received by documents from a journal and divides them by the total number of documents published in that journal. The chart shows the evolution of the average number of times documents published in a journal in the past two, three and four years have been cited in the current year. The two years line is equivalent to journal impact factor ™ (Thomson Reuters) metric.
