JoVE Journal

JoVE Journal is a peer-reviewed scientific journal that publishes research articles, experimental methods, reviews, and case reports. Many articles include video demonstrations that complement the written manuscript, providing visual insight into experimental procedures, while others are published in text-only format.

Researchers use the JoVE Journal to watch detailed video demonstrations of laboratory procedures. The visual format helps scientists understand complex techniques, critical experimental steps, and methodological nuances that may not be fully captured in text-only publications.

JoVE Journal publishes articles describing a wide range of laboratory protocols and experimental approaches across the life sciences, biomedical research, chemistry, engineering, and environmental sciences.

These protocols demonstrate common experimental workflows, including:

• Cell culture and tissue engineering
• Animal and disease models
• Pharmacology and drug testing
• Electrophysiology and imaging techniques
• Histology and tissue preparation
• Flow cytometry and cell analysis
• Sequencing and other omics technologies
• Biochemical and analytical assays

Articles may also present clinical and translational research procedures such as diagnostic workflows, biomarker analysis, surgical or physiological measurements, and therapeutic evaluation used in laboratory and preclinical research.

JoVE Journal improves reproducibility by visually demonstrating experimental workflows. By showing equipment setup, timing, and procedural details, the journal helps researchers replicate experiments more accurately.

Unlike text-only journals, JoVE Journal combines peer-reviewed manuscripts with professionally produced experiment videos. This format enhances clarity, improves knowledge transfer, and supports hands-on scientific learning.

JoVE Journal publishes research across a broad range of scientific disciplines, including biology, chemistry, medicine, neuroscience, engineering, immunology, cancer research, and related areas of the life, biomedical, and physical sciences. The journal features studies spanning experimental research, methodological advances, clinical and translational investigations, and interdisciplinary approaches across multiple scientific fields.

Yes. Articles published in the JoVE Journal can be cited in academic manuscripts, theses, and grant proposals like other peer-reviewed research publications.

JoVE Journal articles help researchers better understand experimental approaches, research design, and analytical techniques used across a wide range of scientific studies. Many articles include video demonstrations that provide visual insight into experimental procedures, instrumentation, and workflows, while others present detailed methodologies, results, reviews, or case studies in written form. By providing clear descriptions of experimental design, data collection, and analysis, JoVE articles can help researchers interpret methods and results more accurately and improve the clarity and rigor of their own scientific writing.
