Aims and Scope:

The Pharmacogenomics Journal is dedicated to the publication of original research on pharmacogenomics and its clinical applications.

Topics covered include:

  • Identification of novel genomic targets for drug development
  • Clinical applications of genomic science
  • Potential benefits of pharmacogenomics
  • Effects of genetic variability on drug toxicity and efficacy
  • Pharmacokinetic variation and drug toxicity
  • Pharmacodynamic variation and drug efficacy
  • The integration of new developments in the genome project and proteomics into clinical medicine, pharmacology, and therapeutics.

Readership:

Geneticists, molecular biologists, clinical and molecular pharmacologists, as well as those working in biotechnology, drug discovery and drug development.

The Pharmacogenomics Journal provides:

  • Original Articles - high-quality reports whose conclusions represent a substantial advance in the understanding of important problems in the field.
  • Review Articles - top researchers survey recent developments in topical areas of scientific research or on occasion, more wide-ranging subjects.
  • News and Commentary - inform readers about new scientific advances, as reported either in recently published papers or at scientific meetings.
  • Perspectives - provide an update on developments in fast-moving areas of interest.
  • Ethical, Economics, Legal and Social (EELS) - present well-argued, thought-provoking analysis of issues and considerations involved in both basic research and in practice.
  • Clinical Implications - either hypothetical or based on current clinical trials and encourage the transition from basic research to clinical practice by presenting a diagnostic or treatment challenge.

What makes The Pharmacogenomics Journal stand apart from other resources?

  • High Quality Research - the journal provides highly cited original research in the field of genetics & heredity and pharamacology & pharmacy.
  • Accessibility to a Broad Readership - articles published in The Pharmacogenomics Journal are accompanied by supplementary information in the form of text, figures, tables, or images, giving greater insight into primary research.
  • Advanced User Functionality - the clean design of The Pharmacogenomics Journal facilitates easy navigation and retrieval of information for users, including those using assistive technology.
  • Unique Online Features - selected articles are published online in advance of appearing in the print version, providing immediate access to the latest research.
