Arthritis Research & Therapy is a peer-reviewed medical journal that focuses on the field of rheumatology, particularly the study and treatment of arthritis and related conditions. The journal publishes a wide range of articles, including original research, reviews, and clinical studies, aimed at advancing the understanding and management of arthritis.
Scope and Focus[edit]
Arthritis Research & Therapy covers a broad spectrum of topics related to arthritis, including but not limited to:
- Pathophysiology of arthritis
- Genetics and epigenetics of rheumatic diseases
- Immunology and inflammation
- Clinical trials and therapeutics
- Epidemiology and public health
- Biomarkers and diagnostic tools
The journal aims to provide a platform for researchers and clinicians to share their findings and insights, fostering collaboration and innovation in the field of rheumatology.
Editorial Board[edit]
The editorial board of Arthritis Research & Therapy is composed of leading experts in the field of rheumatology. The current editor-in-chief is Christopher Buckley, a renowned rheumatologist with extensive experience in arthritis research.
Publication and Access[edit]
Arthritis Research & Therapy is published by BioMed Central, a part of Springer Nature. The journal is fully open access, meaning that all articles are freely available to the public without subscription fees. This model supports the dissemination of knowledge and encourages the use of research findings in clinical practice.
Impact and Influence[edit]
