Dr. Henry Wang, JACEP Open Editor in ChiefJACEP Open is off to a fantastic start. We expect to be Medline indexed by early 2021, and to obtain an Impact Factor in 2022-2023.
However, since JACEP Open is open access, authors’ works will be freely accessible to the entire world as soon as it goes on-line. A motivated author can potentially see his/her paper progress from submission to publication on-line in as little as 8 weeks.
