Here in this post, apart from Communication Biology Impact Factor, I have tried to compile all the necessary information a research scholar would seek before publishing an article in the journal.
About Communication Biology Journal
Communication Biology is a recently launched peer-reviewed journal from Nature Publishing Group.
Communication Biology publishes high-quality research across all areas of biology.
Impact Factor
SJR Rank
H-index
Communication Biology Impact Factor
Impact Factor (IF) or often called journal impact factor (JIF) is an index provided by an analytics company named Clarivate. The impact factor is calculated by dividing the number of times the articles are cited in the last two years by the total number of publications in those two years.
- Total Citations in 2020 and 2021 = 500
- Total Number of Publications in 2020 and 2021 = 100
- Impact Factor of the Journal in 2022 = 500/100 = 5
Communication Biology Impact Factor (2019-2025)
- Communication Biology Impact Factor 2019 – 3.896
- Communication Biology Impact Factor 2020 – 5.489
- Communication Biology Impact Factor 2021 – 6.268
- Communication Biology Impact Factor 2022 – 5.9
- Communication Biology Impact Factor 2022 – 5.2
- Communication Biology Impact Factor 2022 – 5.1 (updated in June 2025)
