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 Nanotechnology in the Life Sciences?
Nanotechnology in the Life Sciences is the 3873rd out of 8,993 Life Sciences journals. This Journal is the 4693rd out of 11,479 Physical Sciences journals.
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.
