Covers materials characterization processing and synthesis through archival papers, commentaries and reviews. Targets research scientists in industry, academia and national laboratories. Highlights topics such as adhesives, high-temperature superconductors, chemical vapor deposition, composites and ceramics. The Journal of Materials Research (JMR) is a premier archival journal devoted to publishing new research that demonstrates a significant impact or advance of scientific understanding of interest to the materials research community.

Written for mechanical engineers and covers topics on the conception, development, and design of machines and mechanical systems. Includes topics on robotic system design, computer coordinated mechanisms, expert systems in design, computer-aided engineering, design optimization, mechanism design, kinematics and dynamics of mechanisms, cam design, gear design, continuously variable transmission, power transmission design, design of machine elements, design theory, design methodology, stress in design and reliability in design.

Addresses how religion as a social and cultural phenomenon broadens understanding of mass communication and society. Examines a full range of religious traditions (e.g., Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Eastern religious philosophies, and new/alternative religious movements) and serves as a forum for scholars, media professionals and theologians.

Monthly Unique Users: The Publisher does not disclose the monthly unique user figure. Frequency: The website is updated constantly with new submissions. Aims of the journal: Journal of Medical Case Reports is an open access, peer-reviewed online journal that will consider any original case report that expands the field of general medical knowledge, and original research relating to case reports. Readership: The journal is targeted toward medical researchers, interested in keeping up to speed with the latest findings and developments within the field. Content: Each article type published by Journal of Medical Case Reports follows a specific format. It will publish original and interesting case reports that contribute significantly to medical knowledge. Manuscripts must meet one of the following criteria: unreported or unusual side effects or adverse interactions involving medications; unexpected or unusual presentations of a disease; new associations or variations in disease processes; presentations, diagnoses and/or management of new and emerging diseases; an unexpected association between diseases or symptoms; an unexpected event in the course of observing or treating a patient; or findings that shed new light on the possible pathogenesis of a disease or an adverse effect. The "Patient's Perspective" section is an opportunity for the patient to add a description of the case from their own perspective. The patient should be encouraged to state what originally made them seek medical advice, give a description of their symptoms, whether the symptoms were better or worse at different times, how any tests and treatments affected them, and how the problem is now. Manuscript Submission: Author guidelines are available here. Online manuscripts can be submitted here. Other Information: No generic phone number for editorial.

The Journal of Medicinal Chemistry is a bi-weekly journal published by American Chemical Society, providing original research on the correlation of molecular structure to biological activity. The journal focuses on the design and synthesis of biologically active compounds, and molecular modifications designed to target drugs to specific tissues, the role of metabolism in drug actions, application of NMR and X-ray crystallography to investigate molecular recognition at receptors, molecular modeling studies that furnish fresh insight into the design of novel agents, and molecular biology studies to study the interaction of legends and receptors. The lead time varies.
