Recently, Elsevier, as the publisher, received notification from Clarivate Analytics that following a rigorous selection and evaluation process, Science in One Health (SOH) has been officially accepted into the Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI) database. All previously published articles will be retrospectively indexed in Web of Science within the next two months, with the journal’s first Impact Factor expected to be released in June 2026.
Since its launch two and a half years ago, SOH has been successively indexed by the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ), Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS), Scopus, PubMed Central (PMC), and ESCI. These milestones signify that the journal’s academic quality and editorial standards have gained full recognition from the international academic and publishing communities, laying a solid foundation for its further global expansion and progression toward becoming a world-class scientific journal.
Moving forward, SOH will continue to fulfill its mission of serving research in the One Health field by refining its academic exchange platform, strengthening interdisciplinary collaboration, and expanding its global resource network, thereby providing more efficient and open scholarly support to researchers worldwide. We look forward to collaborating with academic peers to jointly advance innovation and development in the global One Health disciplinary community!
About ESCI
Launched by Clarivate Analytics in November 2015, the Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI) forms part of the Web of Science (WOS) database alongside the Science Citation Index Expanded (SCIE), Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI), and Arts & Humanities Citation Index (A&HCI). ESCI is designed to index high-quality, peer-reviewed English-language journals with regional significance or those in emerging scientific fields. Journals accepted into ESCI may transition to SCIE, SSCI, or A&HCI following further rigorous professional evaluation and selection.
