SLAS Discovery and SLAS Technology demonstrate research impact with 2024 impact factors
SLAS Technology achieved a substantial increase, rising 1.2 points to 3.7, highlighting its growing influence in the fields of laboratory automation and technology. SLAS Discovery remained firm with a 2.7 IF, reflecting its continued role as a trusted publication representing drug discovery and life sciences research.
“Reaching an impact factor of 3.7 was only possible through the collective effort of our authors, reviewers, special issue editors, editorial board members and the SLAS community,” says SLAS Technology Editor-in-Chief Edward Chow, PhD. “Thank you for allowing us to share impactful scientific research with the world.”
The 2024 impact factors increased due to Open Access publishing—a publishing model that makes the latest and most innovative research accessible to all readers and researchers.
Contributing authors have experienced increased visibility and citations with their published research. Researchers interested in submitting their work are encouraged to view the current list of calls for papers for upcoming Special Issues of SLAS Discovery and SLAS Technology.
