Future Microbiology
Microbiology has inevitably been impacted by the genomic revolution, with the first microbial genome sequencing project, that of Haemophilus influenzae, being completed in 1995. While microbes are thought to make up approximately 60% of the earth’s biomass, less than 1% of them have been characterized thus far. Currently, a number of agencies are continuing the enormous task of mapping these DNA sequences, particularly those that are of medical importance, or have the potential to be used in bioterrorism. Research into the extreme diversity of microbial organisms will lead to the elucidation of new biologic pathways and gene products, and thus potential therapeutic strategies to combat or prevent infection.
Impact Factor Trend 2000 - 2025
The impact factor (IF) or journal impact factor (JIF) of an academic journal is a scientometric factor based on the yearly average number of citations on articles published by a particular journal in the last two years. In other words, the impact factor of 2024 - 2025 is the average of the number of cited publications divided by the citable publications of a journal. A journal impact factor is frequently used as a proxy for the relative importance of a journal within its field. Normally, journals with higher impact factors are often deemed to have more influence than those with lower ones. However, the science community has also noted that review articles typically are more citable than research articles.Here you can check the journal performance trends based on last 20 years of data, also check the latest journal citation reports 2025. Also Check H-Index, SCImago journal rank and journal impact factor 2025.

Any journal impact factor or scientometric indicator alone will not give you the full picture of a science journal. That’s why every year, scholars review current metrics to improve upon them and sometimes come up with new ones. There are also other factors to sider for example, H-Index, Self-Citation Ratio, SJR (SCImago Journal Rank Indicator) and SNIP (Source Normalized Impact per Paper). Researchers may also consider the practical aspect of a journal such as publication fees, acceptance rate, review speed.
