Aims & Scope
Current Genomics is
a peer-reviewed journal that provides essential reading about the latest and
most important developments in genome science and related fields of research.
Systems biology, systems modeling, machine learning, network inference,
bioinformatics, computational biology, epigenetics, single-cell genomics,
extracellular vesicles, quantitative biology, and synthetic biology for the
study of evolution, development, maintenance, aging, and that of human health, human diseases,
clinical genomics,
and precision medicine are topics of particular interest. The journal also covers plant
genomics. The journal does
not consider articles dealing with breeding and livestock.
Current Genomics publishes three types of articles including:
i) Research
papers from internationally
recognized experts reporting on new and original data generated at the
genome-scale level. Position papers dealing with new or challenging methodological approaches,
whether experimental or mathematical, are greatly welcome in this section.
ii) Authoritative and comprehensive full-length or
mini-reviews
from widely recognized experts, covering the latest developments in genome
science and related fields of research, such as systems biology, statistics and
machine learning, quantitative biology, and precision medicine. Proposals for
mini-hot topics (2-3 review papers) and full hot topics (6-8 review papers) guest-edited by internationally recognized
experts are welcome in this section. Hot topic proposals should not contain
original data, and
they should contain articles originating from at least 2 different countries.
iii) Opinion papers from internationally recognized
experts addressing contemporary questions and issues in the field of genome
science and systems biology and basic and clinical research practices.
Current Genomics is an international, peer-reviewed journal on all aspects of Genomics, published bi-monthly (print & online) by Bentham Science Publishers.
