The journal focuses on Cell biology, Anatomy, Genetics, Molecular biology and Internal medicine. Embryo is a major topic of Cell biology research. The journal emphasizes research on Embryo, which includes concerns such as Embryogenesis.
The Anatomy works featured in it incorporate elements from Mesenchyme, Neural crest, Ectoderm, Mesoderm and Neuroscience. Gene, Mutant, Transcription factor, Regulation of gene expression and Phenotype are among the concentrations of Genetics that garnered much attention in Developmental Biology. The Gene research dealing mostly with Gene expression is the focus of Developmental Biology.
The work on Molecular biology tackled in Developmental Biology brings together disciplines like RNA, Xenopus and Messenger RNA. Internal medicine and Endocrinology are closely related fields of research discussed in the journal.
The published papers generally zeroe in on subjects such as Cell biology, Anatomy, Internal medicine, Endocrinology and Genetics. The journal publications tackle studies in Cellular differentiation and the interrelated subject of Molecular biology and Stem cell to gain insights into Cell biology. While Anatomy is the key highlight in the most cited publications, thet also covered some subjects on Mesoderm and Gastrulation and Endoderm.
The journal primarily tackles Cell biology, Zebrafish, Signal transduction, Anatomy and Mouse Retina. Topics in Cell biology explored in Developmental Biology were investigated in conjunction with research in Live cell imaging, Ligand (biochemistry), Drosophila melanogaster, Pattern formation and Bone morphogenetic protein. It addresses concerns in Zebrafish which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Xenopus, Transcriptome, Retinoic acid receptor, Retinoic acid and Teratology.
Developmental Biology focuses on Signal transduction but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Gastrulation, Cellularization, Yolk, Late endosome and Craniofacial. The studies on Anatomy discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Fish fin, Actinotrichia and Fin. Topics in Mouse Retina were tackled in line with various other fields like Mammalian retina and Central nervous system.
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in Developmental Biology (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in Developmental Biology (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2022 edition, 0.00% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 14.29% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 0.00% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 14.29% of all publications and 71.43% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.

(2021)Students pursuing Biology and Biochemistry in the USA have a diverse range of career options and degree paths to consider. For those interested in healthcare beyond laboratory research, healthcare administration courses offer an excellent way to gain leadership skills aligned with the medical field. These programs provide a foundation in managing healthcare facilities and improving service delivery, complementing scientific expertise.
Biology majors often explore careers that pay well, including roles in pharmaceuticals, environmental science, and biotechnology. Understanding the most promising biology careers can help guide students toward financially rewarding and impactful professions that fit their interests.
Many learners also benefit from pursuing an online biology bachelor's degree, which offers flexibility without sacrificing quality. Accelerated formats enable students to enter the workforce more quickly or transition from other fields efficiently, making higher education more accessible.
Additionally, an online degree in exercise science is a compelling option for those interested in human physiology and wellness. This degree opens doors to careers in fitness, rehabilitation, and sports medicine, blending biology with practical applications in health and exercise.
