Where your research is found
Every IJN article earns a permanent Crossref DOI and is surfaced in Google Scholar and major scholarly search services — so your work stays findable, citable and credited to you for good.
Your research, findable from the day it’s published
Discoverability is engineered into every International Journal of Nutrition article. We register a permanent Crossref DOI on each paper, publish fully open access under CC BY 4.0, and deposit complete, standards-based metadata — the same infrastructure used by the world’s leading publishers.
The result is concrete reach: your work is surfaced in Google Scholar, OpenAlex and the scholarly discovery services below, free to read anywhere in the world, and permanently citable. Every signal on this page is real and independently verifiable.
Article count from the journal’s published record; OpenAlex independently lists 125 works and 539 citations, growing as articles are read and cited.

How to make your article more discoverable
Discoverability is a partnership. A few simple steps at submission meaningfully widen your readership.
- Use a clear, specific title and consistent keywords (MeSH terms where applicable) so search engines connect your work to related nutrition topics.
- Add your ORCID and accurate funding statements — they strengthen attribution and metadata matching.
- Share your article’s DOI on professional profiles and your institutional repository to widen reach.
- Write a concise, structured abstract; it is what most discovery tools index and display.
