On journals....? - (Jun/10/2007 )
What are the low ranking biology scientific journals and what are the better ones / best ones? Like I know Science and The Cell are amongst best.

For that you have to know the Impact Factor of the Journal. Higher the IF, better the journal. But, I think individual article and the author/lab should be taken into consideration rather than the journal

Thompson Sci. publishes each year the current IF in the Science citation index; most journals offer their current IF on their journal homepage
