The graph shows the changes in the impact factor of Nature Biomedical Engineering and its the corresponding percentile for the sake of comparison with the entire literature. Impact Factor is the most common scientometric index, which is defined by the number of citations of papers in two preceding years divided by the number of papers published in those years.
How Influential is Nature Biomedical Engineering?
Nature Biomedical Engineering is the 3rd out of 335 Biomedical Engineering journals. This means the journal is among the top 1% in the sub-discipline of Biomedical Engineering. This Journal is the 9th out of 826 Chemical Engineering journals. This means the journal is among the top 2% in the discipline of Chemical Engineering. This Journal is the 26th out of 5,488 Applied Sciences journals. This means the journal is among the top 1% in the science branch of Applied Sciences. This Journal is the 52nd out of 9,726 Life Sciences journals. This means the journal is among the top 1% in the science branch of Life Sciences. This Journal is the 52nd out of 12,155 Physical Sciences journals. This means the journal is among the top 1% in the science branch of Physical Sciences. This Journal is the 53rd out of 15,471 Health Sciences journals. This means the journal is among the top 1% in the science branch of Health Sciences.
How are inpact factors calculated?
The impact factor (IF) is calculated by counting citations from peer-reviewed journals only.
extended IF also counts citations from books and conference papers. However, no patent, abstract, working papers, online documents, etc., are covered.
