Baishideng Publishing Group Inc was built upon the knowledge and experience gained with its predecessor, Baishideng Publishing Group Co., Limited and launched on July 07, 2010 as a specialized publisher that mainly engages in editing, publishing, and distribution of the World series medical journals. The earliest publication of the Baishideng Publishing Group (Baishideng) dates back to January 15, 1993 (the Chinese language Journal of New Digestology, renamed Shijie Huaren Xiaohua Zazhi/World Chinese Journal of Digestology on January 15, 1999), which was followed on October 01, 1995 by the English language China National Journal of New Gastroenterology (renamed World Journal of Gastroenterology (WJG) on January 15, 1998). In order to effectively edit and publish these two journals, the Baishideng BioMed Scientific Co., Ltd. was established on December 11, 2006.
