American Journal of Nephrology


The American Journal of Nephrology is a peer-reviewed international journal that focuses on timely topics in both basic science and clinical research. Papers are divided into several sections, including: original reports, spanning clinical, basic, and outcomes research; in-depth topic reviews on specific topics selected by the editor and associate editors; invited debates, selected on “hot topics” determined by the editorial board. Responding to the ever-increasing pace in research, the American Journal of Nephrology adheres to a very tight publication schedule: accepted papers appear online in the unedited, original manuscript version within a few days of acceptance and the final version is published within 5-6 weeks of acceptance.

George L. Bakris

(June 15, 1952 - June 15, 2024)

It is with deep sadness that we were informed of the passing of Prof. George L. Bakris, Editor-in-Chief of American Journal of Nephrology, who died on Saturday June 15, 2024 at the age of 72.

He was a passionate editor whose commitment and vision inspired everyone who had the privilege of working with him. Prof. Bakris will be sorely missed and remembered as a pillar in the fields of hypertension and nephrology and an outstanding mentor and leader. Our thoughts and condolences go to his family and colleagues.
