Elements was organized to reinforce research efforts on Geochemistry, Earth science, Internal medicine, Cell biology and Astrobiology.
The journal publications mainly deal with areas of study such as Geochemistry, Earth science, Mineralogy, Crust and Environmental chemistry. The studies on Geochemistry discussed at the published papers can also contribute to research in the domains of Subduction, Oceanic crust and Mineral. Chemical engineering and Aqueous solution are some topics wherein Mineralogy research discussed in the most cited papers has an impact.
The journal primarily focuses on research topics in Internal medicine, Cell biology, Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), Artificial intelligence and Cardiology.
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 Elements (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 Elements (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 2021 edition, 86.22% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 81.43% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 4.29% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 5.71% of all publications and 8.57% 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.

(2020)Studying Biology and Biochemistry in the USA opens doors to a variety of career paths that combine science with practical applications. For those interested in interdisciplinary fields, exploring child psychology masters programs can complement your biological knowledge, especially if you are drawn to developmental research or clinical settings.
Similarly, pursuing an online masters programs for counseling offers biology graduates a chance to directly impact health and well-being by supporting mental health initiatives. These programs often integrate biological sciences with psychological theories, creating a well-rounded skill set.
For those inclined towards organizational roles in the healthcare sector, earning a healthcare administration degree online accredited can provide essential management skills. This degree bridges biology with healthcare operations, preparing graduates for leadership positions.
Exploring practical outcomes of a biology background is also important. Many biology degree jobs offer competitive salaries and fulfilling career growth, from research and pharmaceuticals to environmental science and biotechnology.
