The Lancet is a world-leading, peer-reviewed general medical journal that publishes a broad range of high-quality scientific research, clinical reviews, and authoritative commentary across all aspects of human health. Established in 1823, it serves as a critical platform for disseminating breakthrough medical discoveries, evaluating the efficacy of clinical interventions, and addressing pressing global health challenges such as infectious diseases, oncology, neurology, and cardiology. Beyond clinical medicine, the journal extensively covers social determinants of health, medical ethics, and public policy, often advocating for evidence-based improvements in healthcare systems and international health equity. Through its core weekly publication and its family of specialised monthly journals, The Lancet aims to bridge the gap between rigorous scientific inquiry and practical application, providing clinicians, researchers, and policymakers with the data necessary to influence health outcomes on a global scale.

Established in 1845, Scientific American remains the oldest continuously-published magazine in the United States. Redesigned in October 2010, the publication covers the most important and exciting research in science, health, technology, the environment, and society, exploring important ideas often months and years before other media recognizes their importance. The magazine publishes 15 foreign language editions, and regular sections include Forum, which provides a platform for external experts to comment on science policy; Science Agenda, where editors can discuss different science issues; and Insights, which profiles a scientist or researcher and analyzes their contribution to society. Other sections include Anti Gravity and Skeptic. Regular columns include The Science of Health and TechnoFiles. Publicists should feel free to pitch anytime, although they should avoid pitching individual products or new company officer announcements. They should focus on science-based stories that are better told by a journalist than an expert.
