Clinical Laboratory Science

So, what are "core journals?"

Core journals refer to the journals within a given specialty that are the most important ones for that specialty. They are frequently among the most well-known journals: the most often read, consulted, or cited by other researchers, educators, and practitioners within that specialty.

HINT: Core journals are also good journals for students to consult who are looking for research articles in a given speciality!

The journals are listed alphabetically.  Any information in quotes is direct from the journal's official website.  To access the journal @ FGCU Library type the title in the "Journal Search" box above.
