How well do you know Annual Reviews?
We got our start in the late 1920s when founder J. Murray Luck, Professor of Biochemistry at Stanford University, set out to review current research in the (then) emerging field of biochemistry, and found himself “dismayed … by the immensity of the task…” He asked leading professors in the field to write intelligent syntheses of the key primary literature. In 1932, he published the first volume of the Annual Review of Biochemistry. It has become a foundational resource for relevant topics, enabling further discovery. Take a look today and revisit the science of yesterday, still relevant today:
Annual Review of Biochemistry, Volume 1, 1932

Fast Forward to 2017: Scientific Literature Reviewed, from A to V
Today we publish 50 journals covering disciplines within the biomedical, life, physical, and social sciences, from Analytical Chemistry to Vision Science. Each journal provides a pathway to the relevant primary research across a number of topics within the field. Our authors critically examine a wide array of articles, papers, and books to provide objective overviews and summarize important ideas and findings.
We’ve recently added the following journals to our collection:
- Cancer Biology
- Vision Science
- Linguistics
- Virology
- Statistics and Its Application
- Organizational Psychology and Organizational Behavior
- Animal Biosciences
- Condensed Matter Physics
- Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering
- Marine Science
- Economics
- Financial Economics
- Resource Economics
Publishing in 2018:
- Biomedical Data Science
- Control, Robotics, and Autonomous Systems
- Criminology
