Aims and Scope:
Molecular systems biology is an integrative
discipline that seeks to explain the properties
and behaviour of complex biological systems
in terms of their molecular components and
their interactions.
Molecular Systems Biology publishes full-length papers and accompanying synopses describing original research in the field of molecular systems biology and that focuses on the analysis, integration and modeling of molecular and cellular phenomena. Since molecular systems biology relies on a variety of computational and high-throughput technologies, the journal makes full use of the online environment to allow reader interaction with data and models presented in the published articles.
Topics falling within the scope of the journal include, but are not limited to:
- Proteomics
- Metabolomics
- Functional genomics
- Structural genomics
- Transcriptomics
- Computational biology
- Bioinformatics
- Theoretical biology
- Synthetic biology
Readership:
Molecular biologists, geneticists, systems biologists,
immunologists.
