Expert Opinion 2009 Impact Factors

The 2009 ISI Impact Factors (IFs) have just been released, and Expert Opinion has had a good year:

Expert Opinion on Investigational Drugs = 4.218
Expert Opinion on Therapeutic Targets = 3.713
Expert Opinion on Biological Therapy = 3.215
Expert Opinion on Drug Metabolism and Toxicology = 3.076
Expert Opinion on Drug Safety = 2.496
Expert Opinion on Emerging Drugs = 2.407
Expert Opinion on Pharmacotherapy = 2.018
Expert Opinion on Therapeutic Patents = 1.280

Expert Opinion on Drug Delivery has now received its first IF, emerging with a strong first showing of 3.345.

The IF indicates a publication’s influence within the global research community. In a given year, the IF of a journal reflects the average number of citations to those papers that were published during the two preceding years. Expert Opinion’s 2009 IFs therefore account for the number of articles published from 2007-2008, which were cited in 2009.
Further information on IF’s can be found on the ISI Web of Knowledge website, under Journal Citation Reports.
