of 2,106 topic-associated OpenAlex sources by lifetime output
FWCI compares papers with the same publication year, type, and field. 1.0 is the world average; above 1.0 is above expectation. This journal's median is 1.82, so its typical recent paper runs about 82% above its field benchmark.
33.7% of recent papers rank in the global top 10% after field normalization. This is easier to compare across specialties than raw citation totals.
Volume is separated from citation accumulation so newer papers are not presented as weaker simply because they are newer.

Source: the current OpenAlex source record. OpenAlex works can include multiple work types. Fully Open Access is a source-level flag. Recent OA Works is summed from OpenAlex's counts_by_year series (up to the latest ten years); it is not a lifetime OA percentage. Any APC shown here is an indicative OpenAlex value—verify current charges on the journal's official website.
Neurobiology of Disease's 2026 Journal Metrics Score is 4.8, from the August 2026 data release. The score is a two-year citation average computed from OpenAlex (CC0) data: citations received in the most recent complete year to works published in the two prior years, divided by the number of those works.
Neurobiology of Disease's best quartile is Q1. By OpenAlex subfield: Q1 in Cellular and Molecular Neuroscience; Q1 in Physiology; Q1 in Neurology. Quartiles rank journals by Journal Metrics Score within each subfield.
No. Journal Metrics computes the score independently from OpenAlex open data. Other providers use different citation databases, document types, and counting rules, so their published figures for Neurobiology of Disease will not match this score exactly. Compare journals using one source at a time.
Neurobiology of Disease accepts papers a median of 77 days after submission across 99 recent PubMed records with both dates; the middle half took 52–126 days. This includes peer review, editorial handling, and revisions.
PubMed records when a manuscript was received and accepted, not the individual review stages, so peer review time on its own is not available. The full time from submission to acceptance at Neurobiology of Disease, which includes peer review and revisions, has a median of 77 days. For the time to a first decision, check the journal's own website.
Neurobiology of Disease's median of 77 days from submission to acceptance is faster than 89% of comparable journals with PubMed timing data.
