BioDesign Research

ISSN: 2693-1257

BioDesign Research is dedicated to information exchange in the interdisciplinary field of biosystems design. Its unique mission is to pave the way towards the predictable de novo design and assessment of engineered or reengineered living organisms using rational or automated methods to address global challenges in health, agriculture, and the environment.The journal publishes high quality breakthrough research, reviews, editorials, and perspectives focusing on in silico biosystems design, genetic or epigenetic modification, and genome writing or rewriting in any organism. Topics include but are not limited to:• Genome writing and rewriting (gene and genome editing, synthetic viral and cellular genomes).• Biological engineering at the level of chemical (e.g., unnatural nucleotides and amino acids), molecule (e.g., protein and RNA), pathway (e.g., metabolic, signaling and immunological pathways), tissue, organ (e.g., organoids), and organism (e.g., microbiome, plants, and animals).• Methods/tools for biodesign (e.g., pathway/whole-cell/whole-organism modelling, machine-learning, automated design, and bioengineering using algorithm-directed in vivo evolution).• Biodesign theory (e.g., control theory).• Biodesign applications (e.g., gene therapy, cancer research, pharmaceuticals, biomaterials, biosensing, diagnostics, bioremediation, biofuels, carbon sequestration, crop domestication and breeding, biological computation, gene circuits, and minimal organisms).

5 Year impact factor: 2.9
Impact factor: 1.9

Published by Elsevier on behalf of The British Mycological SocietyFungal Ecology publishes investigations into all aspects of fungal ecology, including the following (not exclusive): population dynamics; adaptation; evolution; role in ecosystem functioning, nutrient cycling, decomposition, carbon allocation; ecophysiology; intra- and inter-specific mycelial interactions, fungus-plant (pathogens, mycorrhizas, lichens, endophytes), fungus-invertebrate and fungus-microbe interaction; genomics and (evolutionary) genetics; conservation and biodiversity; remote sensing; bioremediation and biodegradation; quantitative and computational aspects - modelling, indicators, complexity, informatics. The usual prerequisites for publication will be originality, clarity, and significance as relevant to a better understanding of the ecology of fungi.Benefits to authors We also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

Human Microbiome Journal

ISSN: 2452-2317

Title is discontinued as of June 2021The innumerable microbes living in and on our bodies are known to affect human wellbeing, but our knowledge of their role is still at the very early stages of understanding. Human Microbiome is a specialist open access journal dedicated to research on the impact of the microbiome on human health and disease. The journal publishes original research, reviews, comments, human microbe descriptions and genome, and letters. Topics covered include: the repertoire of human-associated microbes, therapeutic intervention, pathophysiology, experimental models, physiological, geographical, and pathological changes, and technical reports; genomic, metabolomic, transcriptomic, and culturomic approaches are welcome.

An official journal of the Indian Association of Medical MicrobiologistsIndian Journal of Medical Microbiology (IJMM) provides comprehensive coverage of medical microbiology, as well as infectious diseases. We welcome wide ranging contributions; from basic research at laboratory to clinical trials, including bacteriology, mycobacteriology, virology, mycology and parasitology, infection prevention and control, and infectious diseases.We publish articles under the following subject categories:Antimicrobial susceptibility and antimicrobial stewardship: surveillance of antimicrobial susceptibility in bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites of importance in humans, animals, and the environment that are frequently interconnected; mechanisms of action, resistance and interactions. The role of antimicrobial stewardship programs in hospitals and its effectiveness.Clinical microbiology: understanding pathogenesis, virulence factors of the diseases caused by bacteria, viruses, mycobacteria, parasites and fungi in humans, clinical presentation, newer methods and tools for diagnosis of disease and therapeutic options; community health with respect to infection burden and prevention, disease epidemiology and climate change.Emerging infectious diseases: understanding the epidemiology of new and emerging infections or old infections having a resurgence in humans including zoonosis; their pathophysiology, clinical presentation, diagnosis and treatment.Medical mycology and mycobacteriology: pathogenesis, diagnosis, drug susceptibility, therapy, clinical immunology, autoimmune diseases, and immune responses to infections, vaccine development, epidemiology, public health and outbreak investigation of diseases in humans.Hospital infection: various hospital associated infections -their analysis, control, prevention and lessons learnt, newer methodologies to track HAI's, hospital outbreaks.Molecular studies: application of phenotypic, genotypic and molecular techniques in the study of virulence, AMR genes, epidemiology, outbreak investigations and public health.Microbiome and microbial ecology in health: the normal microbiome and dysbiosis; structure of microbial ecosystems and communities; microbial ecology, with an emphasis on how microorganisms interact with their environment, their host and each other and their impact on general health and treatment of disease. the normal microbiome and dysbiosis and its association with disease conditions; and microbial ecosystems and communities.Immunology: Clinical immunology, autoimmune diseases, and immune responses to infectionsVaccinology and therapeutics: research in identifying vaccine targets, novel drug discovery and therapeutics.IJMM publishes article types such as original research, review articles, systematic reviews, meta-analysis, clinical trials, correspondence, case reports and a new section - infectious disease grand rounds.High quality scientific content related to infections from dental and veterinary sciences (like zoonotic illnesses) can also be submitted.

Studies in Mycology

ISSN: 0166-0616

The Westerdijk Fungal Biodiversity Institute - an institute of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (KNAW) and situated in Utrecht, The Netherlands - maintains a world-renowned collection of living filamentous fungi, yeasts and bacteria. The institute's research programmes principally focus on the taxonomy and evolution of fungi as well as on functional aspects of fungal biology and ecology, incorporating molecular and genomics approaches. The Westerdijk Fungal Biodiversity Institute employs circa 70 personnel, among whom circa 24 scientists.Studies in Mycology is an international peer-reviewed journal which publishes systematic monographs on the biodiversity of filamentous fungi and yeasts. The first issue was published in 1972. The emphasis of papers should be on fungal taxonomy and biodiversity. Accepted papers will appear immediately online. Authors who intend to submit monographs should contact the Executive Editor in advance. There are no restrictions of length, though it is generally expected that manuscripts should be at least 50 A4 pages in print..Authors who intend to submit monographs or topical issues should contact the Executive Editor in advance. Authors are obliged to meet the requirements as set out in our Instructions for Authors.
