Use when targeting Cell Reports Medicine (Cell Rep Med) or deciding whether a translational or clinical manuscript with mechanistic depth fits this open-access Cell Press venue. Encodes the journal's fit, framing, method-and-evidence bar, house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.

# Cell Reports Medicine (cell-reports-medicine) ## Journal positioning Cell Reports Medicine, an open-access journal from Cell Press and the medical sister of Cell Reports, publishes translational and clinical research with mechanistic depth across the full spectrum of human disease. Its defining character is the pairing of clinical or translational relevance with rigorous biological insight: it favors work that does not merely report a clinical observation or a candidate biomarker, but connects it to mechanism, validates it across systems, and moves toward patient impact. The journal spans oncology, immunology, metabolism, infectious disease, neurology, cardiovascular medicine, and more, and welcomes clinical-trial results, biomarker and target discovery, disease-mechanism studies in human samples, and translational technology — provided the evidence is strong and the advance is meaningful for human health. Readership is the broad translational and clinical research community. This skill is a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** tool. It does not replace the journal's current official submission guidelines. Before submitting, re-check the live author instructions on the Cell Rep

What does the cell-reports-medicine skill do?
Use when targeting Cell Reports Medicine (Cell Rep Med) or deciding whether a translational or clinical manuscript with mechanistic depth fits this open-access Cell Press venue. Encodes the journal's fit, framing, method-and-evidence bar, house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill cell-reports-medicine --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 909 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
