The IJSS has been indexed in the Web of Science Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI) since 2016. In June 2023, for the first time, Clarivate Analytics, the company behind Web of Science and the Impact Factor, released the 2022 Impact Factor for all journals indexed in the ESCI. Thus, we are excited to announce that our Impact Factor is 1.6.
IJSS Editor in Chief Charles Branch, MD, the journal's deputy and associate editors, and the editorial team will work hard to increase the Impact Factor in the coming years.
