Use when targeting Cell Reports Medicine (Cell Rep Med) or deciding whether a translational or clinical manuscript with mechanistic depth fits this open-access Cell Press venue. Encodes the journal's fit, framing, method-and-evidence bar, house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.

# Cell Reports Medicine (cell-reports-medicine)

## Journal positioning

Cell Reports Medicine, an open-access journal from Cell Press and the medical sister of Cell Reports, publishes translational and clinical research with mechanistic depth across the full spectrum of human disease. Its defining character is the pairing of clinical or translational relevance with rigorous biological insight: it favors work that does not merely report a clinical observation or a candidate biomarker, but connects it to mechanism, validates it across systems, and moves toward patient impact. The journal spans oncology, immunology, metabolism, infectious disease, neurology, cardiovascular medicine, and more, and welcomes clinical-trial results, biomarker and target discovery, disease-mechanism studies in human samples, and translational technology — provided the evidence is strong and the advance is meaningful for human health. Readership is the broad translational and clinical research community.

This skill is a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** tool. It does not replace the journal's current official submission guidelines. Before submitting, re-check the live author instructions on the Cell Reports Medicine (Cell Press) site.

## When to trigger

- The author names Cell Reports Medicine as the target for a translational or clinical study with mechanistic depth.
- A study links a clinical observation, biomarker, or therapeutic response to an underlying biological mechanism and the author is choosing between Cell Reports Medicine and `nature-medicine` or `science-translational-medicine`.
- A solid clinical or translational result has broad interest but may not reach the top general medical journals, and the author wants a high-quality open-access Cell Press venue.
- The author needs the journal's scope, evidence bar, and desk-reject criteria before submission.
