Dear Reader,
As we approach the end of 2015, and publish our final issue of Drugs & Aging for the year, the editors and production staff at Adis would like to reflect on another successful year’s achievements and pay thanks to all those who have contributed their time and effort to guarantee the exceptional quality of our content.
We are delighted to have seen the conclusion of formalities surrounding the joint venture of Springer Science+Business Media with Nature Publishing Group, Palgrave Macmillan, Macmillan Education in early May. Substantial ground has already been made in the integration of business within the resulting Springer Nature company and we at Adis look eagerly toward the future, as the benefits of the collective expertise and capabilities of Springer Nature carry us forward.
The majority of our journals saw a rise in ISI impact factor against the previous year. Drugs & Aging increased 13 % to 2.838. Among other rises, most notably, BioDrugs increased by 41 % to 2.989; the European Journal of Drug Metabolism and Pharmacokinetics increased 19 % to 1.563; CNS Drugs increased by 17 % to 5.113; Targeted Oncology increased 16 % to 4.000; Pediatric Drugs increased 15 % to 1.975; and Molecular Diagnosis & Therapy increased a further 12 % to 2.891, having already jumped 53 % in the preceding year. We hope to build upon these gains, once more, in 2016.
The Adis Book programme has grown substantially and 20 new titles will have been published over the course of the year. Over 50 further titles are currently in development with leading academics, internationally, and we continue to add more to the list. Our thanks, again, to all who have submitted these valuable proposals to date.
We offer our sincere thanks to all authors who have contributed articles to Drugs & Aging over the course of 2015. Their skill and dedication are critical to the continued publication of the journal. The world-class quality of published articles is, similarly, testament to the significant efforts of the peer reviewers, whose commitment ensures that our content is held to the highest possible standard. In addition to the members of our Honorary Editorial Board, we would like to thank the following individuals who acted as reviewers for articles published in Drugs & Aging in 2015:
