We are thrilled to announce that, on June 17, 2026, Clarivate Analytics released its 2025 Journal Citation Reports (JCR). Medicine Advances has received its inaugural Impact Factor(IF) of 5.3 and has been placed in Q1 (38/336) in the category MEDICINE, GENERAL & INTERNAL. This result reflects the growing recognition of the research we publish and the trust placed in our editorial processes. Our authors will also benefit from Emerging Sources Citation Index(ESCI)’s international platform, gaining access to the latest developments in their fields and strengthening their scholarly presence worldwide.

As an open‑access general medical journal, Medicine Advances focuses on new technologies, new methods, and new products across the full life cycle of disease—from development and progression, screening and early warning, to diagnosis and classification, treatment and intervention, and prognosis. We also actively explore interdisciplinary innovations, including but not limited to new drug development and artificial intelligence applications.

At Medicine Advances, international collaboration and global perspectives are fundamental to our journal's mission and operations. Our authors, editors, research topics, and readership span the globe, and we thrive on cross—border collaboration. We welcome diverse perspectives from all corners of the world to address pressing medical challenges through interdisciplinary lenses. By connecting cutting—edge ideas across continents, we are building more than a journal—we are cultivating a truly global community of medical innovators. Each issue reflects the richness of worldwide scholarship and fosters meaningful dialogue that transcends boundaries.

Medicine is global——and so are we.

On this remarkable occasion, we extend our heartfelt gratitude to our editorial board, our youth editorial board, our reviewers, and our dedicated authors and readers. Looking ahead, we remain steadfast in our commitment to rigorous peer review, efficient editorial workflows, expanded dissemination channels, and a deepening focus on frontier medical research.
