《酒精》将以英文发表有关酒精研究各个领域的新的系统研究的原始报告。酒精生物作用的各个方面将被涵盖，包括解剖学、生物化学、细胞生物学、生理学、药理学、毒理学、行为学、社会人类学和临床问题。酒精对从业者和基础科学家都有巨大的价值，是专门从事酒精和酒精中毒生物医学研究的主要国际期刊。该杂志每年发表9次，致力于卓越和深入报道作为疾病状态的酗酒的新兴文献。主题包括但不限于：酒精中毒病因中的生物医学因素；非控制性饮酒病理效应中的生物医学因素；酒精中毒鉴定中的生物和生化标志物；非控制性饮酒治疗中的新药和化疗策略；戒酒和精神病；与胎儿酒精综合征相关的逻辑和生物学问题。《酒精》包括原始研究文章，评论文章，理论文章，简短的沟通和快速沟通。简短的通信应该描述一种新的方法，技术或装置，或者提供可以用最少数量的图和表简要报告的实验结果。快速通信应该是原创的并且质量很高，并且长度不应超过四个打印页面。有限数量的相关文献综述和理论文章，专题讨论会的结果，摘要和/或会议记录，以及更全面的研究也可作为期刊的特刊或补充出版。所有特殊问题和补充都要经过我们的标准同行评审程序和编辑的最终批准。

Alcohol will publish original reports in English of new and systematic studies in the various fields of alcohol research. All aspects of alcohol's biological action will be covered, including anatomy, biochemistry, cell biology, physiology, pharmacology, toxicology, behavior, social anthropology, and clinical problems. Of immense value to both practitioners and basic scientists, Alcohol is the major international journal devoted solely to biomedical research on alcohol and alcoholism. Appearing nine times per year, the journal is dedicated to excellence and in-depth reporting of the burgeoning literature on alcoholism as a disease state. Topics include, but are not limited to, biomedical factors in the etiology of alcoholism; biomedical factors in the pathologic effects of uncontrolled drinking; biological and biochemical markers in the identification of alcoholism; new drugs and chemotherapeutic strategies in the treatment of uncontrolled drinking; alcohol withdrawal; and psychological and biological problems associated with fetal alcohol syndrome. Alcohol features original research articles, review articles, theoretical articles, brief communications, and rapid communications. Brief communications should describe a new method, technique, or apparatus or present the results of experiments that can be reported briefly with a minimal number of figures and tables. Rapid communications should be original and of high quality and should not exceed four printed pages in length. A limited number of pertinent literature reviews and theoretical articles, results of symposia, abstracts and/or proceedings of meetings, and more comprehensive studies may also be published as special issues of or supplements to the journal. All special issues and supplements are subject to our standard peer-review procedure and final approval by the Editors.
