Journal of Molecular Biochemistry

The journal serves the novel aim of worldwide unrestricted access to research publications. JMolBiochem is an open access journal and supports the Open Access Initiative (OAI) in academic publishing. We believe that subscription-based journals constrain the flow of scientific knowledge by limiting the visibility and impact of published works. Indexing and retrieval of all scientific papers is top priority.

Our 5-year impact factor has been calculated to 3.63. For more information click here.
