As 2024 is coming to an end, let us reflect on Future Pharmacology’s achievements to better understand what is promising to be a bright year ahead. The Future Pharmacology team remains steadfast in its mission to promote open science, enabling scientists to collaborate more effectively and rapidly in order to provide innovative clinical solutions for complex medical issues. This will be carried out with current and future research being published, with all these academic outputs being both validated and of high quality.
An overview of the 2024 data for Future Pharmacology may help to better assess our overall improvement in quality and scientific outputs. So far, we have published 49 papers. Dr. Giuseppe Floresta from the University of Catania, Italy, has recently been added as a new editorial board member. An Early Career Editorial Board (ECEB) Project has been announced (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/futurepharmacol/announcements/9245), and the first Early Career Editorial Board of Future Pharmacology will be established soon.
We had the opportunity to promote Future Pharmacology at various events in 2024 (Table 1).
I am pleased to inform you that, over the last 12 months, the three papers have attracted the most views (Table 2).
Finally, I will share some excellent news related to Indexing! Our journal was indexed in the Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI)—Web of Science (Clarivate Analytics) in May 2024 (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/futurepharmacol/history) and will receive its first Impact Factor in 2025!
Maintaining quality and integrity is integral to our dedication to the research community and is reflected in all our activities. This year, we have focused on rejecting problematic submissions and ensuring precision in our desk review rejections. Additionally, we prioritize providing an excellent publishing experience for researchers in our community.
From everyone here at Future Pharmacology and myself, we wish you all the best for the holiday season and the new year.
