CLINICS IN DERMATOLOGY

Clinics in Dermatology (ISSN 0738-081X) is a highly regarded, bimonthly peer-reviewed journal published by Elsevier in the United States, serving as a premier venue for high-quality original research and comprehensive reviews in the field of clinical dermatology. The journal focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and pathological understanding of various cutaneous conditions, with a particular emphasis on inflammatory skin diseases, cutaneous neoplasms, and infectious dermatoses. As an indexed source in the Science Citation Index (SCI), it maintains a solid academic reputation and typically holds a ranking within the third or fourth quartile of the medical sciences category according to the Chinese Academy of Sciences journal partitioning, while its impact factor remains competitive within the dermatology discipline as reflected in the annual Journal Citation Reports. Although the journal is not open access, requiring subscriptions or individual article purchases for full-text access, it is widely respected for its rigorous editorial standards and selective acceptance process, which results in a high rejection rate. Consequently, Clinics in Dermatology is best suited for established researchers and clinicians seeking to disseminate significant advances in clinical practice and dermatological science to a global audience of medical professionals.
