Journal Title：Birth Defects Research

The journal Birth Defects Research publishes original research and reviews in areas related to the etiology of adverse developmental and reproductive outcome. In particular the journal is devoted to the publication of original scientific research that contributes to the understanding of the biology of embryonic development and the prenatal causative factors and mechanisms leading to adverse pregnancy outcomes, namely structural and functional birth defects, pregnancy loss, postnatal functional defects in the human population, and to the identification of prenatal factors and biological mechanisms that reduce these risks.

Adverse reproductive and developmental outcomes may have genetic, environmental, nutritional or epigenetic causes. Accordingly, the journal Birth Defects Research takes an integrated, multidisciplinary approach in its organization and publication strategy. The journal Birth Defects Research contains separate sections for clinical and molecular teratology, developmental and reproductive toxicology, and reviews in developmental biology to acknowledge and accommodate the integrative nature of research in this field. Each section has a dedicated editor who is a leader in his/her field and who has full editorial authority in his/her area.

《出生缺陷研究》雜志發表與不良發育和生殖結果病因學相關領域的原創研究和評論。該雜志特別致力于發表原創科學研究，這些研究有助于了解胚胎發育的生物學和導致不良妊娠結果的產前致病因素和機制，即人類結構性和功能性出生缺陷、流產、產后功能性缺陷，并有助于確定降低這些風險的產前因素和生物學機制。

不良生殖和發育結果可能有遺傳、環境、營養或表觀遺傳原因。因此，《出生缺陷研究》雜志在其組織和出版策略中采用了綜合、多學科的方法。《出生缺陷研究》雜志包含臨床和分子畸形學、發育和生殖毒理學以及發育生物學評論的單獨部分，以承認和適應該領域研究的綜合性質。每個部分都有一位專門的編輯，他們是其領域的領導者，并擁有其領域內的完全編輯權。

Birth Defects Research創刊于2017年，由John Wiley and Sons Ltd出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋Medicine - Embryology全領域，此期刊水平偏中等偏靠后，在所屬細分領域中專業影響力一般，過審相對較易，如果您文章質量佳，選擇此期刊，發表機率較高。平均審稿速度 ，影響因子指數1.6，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預警名單，廣大學者值得一試。
