Aim & Scope
The International Journal of Genetics and Genomic Science covers a broad spectrum of topics within the fields of genetics and genomics, including but not limited to:
- Molecular Genetics: Investigations into the structure, function, and regulation of genes, including mechanisms of DNA replication, transcription, translation, and repair.
- Genomic Analysis: Studies utilizing high-throughput sequencing technologies, bioinformatics, and computational methods to analyze genome organization, variation, and evolution.
- Population Genetics: Research focused on genetic diversity, gene flow, genetic drift, and natural selection within and between populations, with implications for evolution and adaptation.
- Human Genetics: Investigations into the genetic basis of inherited disorders, complex diseases, and traits, as well as studies exploring the role of genetics in human health, behavior, and population genetics.
- Medical Genomics: Research addressing the application of genomic technologies in clinical diagnostics, personalized medicine, pharmacogenomics, and disease risk assessment.
- Plant and Animal Genetics: Studies examining the genetics of agriculturally important crops, livestock, and model organisms, with relevance to crop improvement, breeding strategies, and conservation.
- Microbial Genetics: Investigations into the genetics and genomics of bacteria, archaea, fungi, and viruses, including mechanisms of pathogenesis, antimicrobial resistance, and microbial evolution.
- Epigenetics and Gene Regulation: Research focused on the regulation of gene expression through epigenetic mechanisms, chromatin modifications, non-coding RNAs, and their roles in development, differentiation, and disease.
- Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology: Studies exploring novel tools, methodologies, and applications in genetic manipulation, genome editing, synthetic biology, and biotechnological advancements.
- Ethical, Legal, and Social Implications (ELSI) of Genetics: Discussions on the ethical, legal, and social considerations arising from advances in genetics and genomics, including issues related to privacy, consent, equity, and policy development.
The International Journal of Genetics and Genomic Science welcomes submissions from researchers worldwide, providing a forum for the dissemination of cutting-edge research and insights that contribute to the advancement of genetic and genomic science for the betterment of society.
