Abstract: This paper reviews the articles published in Volumes 2-24 of the 
Journal of Molecular Graphics and Modelling (formerly the Journal of 
Molecular Graphics), focusing on the changes that have occurred in the 
subject over the years, and on the most productive and most cited authors 
and institutions. The most cited papers are those describing systems or 
algorithms, but the proportion of these types of article is decreasing as 
more applications of molecular graphics and molecular modelling are 
reported. (C) 2007 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
