The editor-in-chief is Prof. XU Congjian (Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital of Fudan University). Overview and historyReproductive and Developmental Medicine is the first international academic journal in the field of reproductive medicine and developmental biology in mainland China.[1] The journal, formerly known as the Journal of Reproduction and Contraception (English Edition) (ISSN 1001-7844) (Chinese name: 生殖与避孕（英文版）), was established in 1989 against the backdrop of China’s family planning policies. It was edited and published by the editorial office of Reproduction & Contraception (ISSN 0253-357X) (Chinese name: 生殖与避孕). Starting on January 1, 2016, China’s one-child policy came to an end.[2] In April of the same year, the State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television (SAPPRFT) of the People's Republic of China officially approved the renaming of the Journal of Reproduction and Contraception (English Edition) (ISSN 1001-7844) to its current title, Reproductive and Developmental Medicine (ISSN 2096-2924). At the same time, the journal’s governor was changed from the National Health and Family Planning Commission to the China Association for Science and Technology. Its sponsors were updated from the Shanghai Family Planning Research Institute to the Chinese Medical Association, Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital of Fudan University, and Shanghai Institute for Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Technologies.[3][4][5] In 2017, Reproductive and Developmental Medicine began publication on the Medknow under Wolters Kluwer.[1] Since 2022, the publisher has transitioned to the Lippincott Williams & Wilkins of Wolters Kluwer. No fees are charged for submissions, with Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital of Fudan University covering the article processing charges (APC).[6] Publishing scopeThe journal primarily focuses on areas including reproductive endocrinology, reproductive immunology, gametogenesis, fertilization, embryo development and implantation, birth defects, reproductive genetics, reproduction biology, fertility preservation, andrology, genetic diagnosis, preimplantation genetic testing, germline stem cell research, but it generally excludes studies on reproductive system oncology.
