ARCR through the years

As a part of our celebration for the Alcohol Research: Current Reviews (ARCR) 50th anniversary, ARCR staff created a visual timeline of key milestones from its five decades of history. The timeline highlights events ranging from the first pilot issue in 1974, to special issues showcasing the evolution of research in the alcohol field, to changes in the journal 's policies, website, and open access format.

ARCR is on the forefront of the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism 's mission to translate and disseminate research findings to researchers, healthcare providers, policymakers, and the public. Over the years, ARCR 's influence has risen steadily. The journal has touched on all aspects of alcohol research, from basic science to clinical research.

The timeline displays events in an easily accessible and visually appealing manner, complete with historical graphics. It will be updated with new milestones as the journal continues to evolve.
