The Journal of Pre-Clinical and Clinical Research is a multidisciplinary, Rapid-Publication journal edited and published since 2007 by the Institute of Agricultural Medicine in Lublin, Poland. The Journal of Pre-Clinical and Clinical Research is open to scientists from all countries. The mission of the journal is to promote topics of pre-clinical and clinical research, as well as stimulate international cooperation in these areas.

The journal will consider articles from every legitimate specialty. We are particularly interested in:
medicine
human and animal physiology
clinical pharmacology
oncology
molecular cell biology
toxicology
biotechnology
biophysics

Clinical and pre-clinical studies are welcomed together with:
reviews
case reports
preliminary communications
studies on new indications or new formulations of established products.

In addition, the Journal of Pre-Clinical and Clinical Research will also consider publishing the results of experiments that failed to produce expected findings - so called "negative results". The Journal recognizes the importance to the scientific and clinical community of well designed and rigorously tested studies that are often misinterpreted as a failure because they challenge prevailing dogma.

Rapid publication
Approved papers that have sponsorship secured are normally published on-line within 3 months and will be in print within 6 months of acceptance. This exceptional publication speed, particularly on-line, means that articles are available and accessible as reference material within weeks rather than months.

Publication Frequency
Publication is on-line and ongoing, while articles will appear in print twice a year.
