If Scientific Journals Were Honest
  • adventuresinchemistry

    Nature: 90% whatever’s hot in bio right now, 10% other

    Science: 2 pages of a really cool story, 50 pages of supplement

    Cell: your entire dissertation edited down to 20 unreadable pages

    PNAS: papers Academy members couldn’t get into better journals

    PLOS one: papers non Academy members couldn’t get into better journals, but open source

    eLife: papers people couldn’t get into PLOS one

    Nature [insert field]: research that isn’t hot enough for Nature

    Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics: we couldn’t decide if we were one field or two

    JACS: chemistry you’re pretty sure is cool but honestly you’re not sure you understand

    Angewante Chemie: JACS but German

    Advances in Physics: scientific journals: a statistical approach

    Astrophysical Journal: not nearly enough pictures of space

    Actual Journal of Your Field: solid science, interesting, low impact
