First of 3 key events: An international workshop tradition beginsIn the fall of 1997, Subhash Lakhotia hosted a workshop entitled “Molecular Biology of Stress

Responses” in India. This set the pattern for future CSSI international workshops: About 100

participants, 70% from the host developing country and neighboring countries, emphasis on

quality science, student participation, and culture.

Wolfgang Schumann and Subhash.

Wolfgang tells the story of the idea of

a workshop at www.cellstress.uconn.edu.

Second Event: An international congress in Budapest, 1997

The Budapest Congress attracted over 700 colleagues from over 62 countries. With an

attendance more than twice the 1996 Cold Spring Harbor meeting, a very popular venue that

had filled beyond capacity, this congress demonstrated that there was great interest and enthusiasm

from the global scientific community to support and attend international meetings in our field.

2013 was the 18th year of

Cell Stress & Chaperones

Bound volumes of a journal are rarely seen today.

It is a good way to show the growth of our journal over

its 18 year existence. Dramatic increases in the number of

published papers began in 2008, the start of the Springer Era.

In that year Cell Stress & Chaperones became published by

Springer and is part of the world-wide distribution system for

Springer electronic and print journals.

The first public display of CSAC was during

The German Society for Cell Biology meeting,

Hamburg, 1996.

The chart above shows the dramatic increase in citations,

a change that will translate into higher Impact Factors for our journal

over the next few years. The chart on the right is likely the most predictive

of the future growth and development of our journal,

the annual increases in full text downloads of articles

published in Cell Stress & Chaperones.
