Abstract :
The International Journal of Frontier Sciences just completed its three years of publication. Start
of a journal is always challenging for editors especially if journal is not an official publication of
some institute or professional society. However, completing three years also has been a very
learning experience for editorial team.
From the start, TIJFS team is focused to catch indexation in EMBASE, MEDLINE, PubMed,
Scopus and Web of Science. However, starting years of the journal are always challenging.
Journal editors are continuously improving practices to achieve these milestones at earliest. In
scope, journal is transdisciplinary mainly covering life and environmental sciences. Starting from
Pakistan, it was very difficult to run an internationally covered journal, however, our international
editorial team putting its continuous efforts to do this. In last year, journal started its indexing
process and just became a part of WHO’s Index Medicus. Also, editors started to generate digital
object identifiers (DOIs) of all manuscripts published. Currently, journal is in process of
indexation in prestigious international bodies including Web of Science etc. Journal editors hope
to be a part of many international indices during the current volume year. Also, its worth to
mention that journal is following ethical guidelines by Consolidated Standards of Reporting
Trials, Committee of Publication Ethics, International Committee of Medical Journal Editors and
World Association of Medical Editors.

domains of life sciences especially medical science including topics of clinical chemistry,
dentistry, gynaecology, neurosurgery, nutrition, pain medicine, public health, rehabilitation, sleep
