We encourage sharing of initial manuscripts through preprint servers, and to facilitate this, we offer a direct submission route from bioRxiv or medRxiv to Cell Genomics. We also encourage rapid sharing of data and software/code, and we require datasets and software/code to be made available with the initial submission to Cell Genomics so that these can be carefully vetted as part of our review process. Cell Genomics is committed to providing authors with a fast, fair, informed, and responsive review process. We offer the option of transparent peer review so that readers are able to follow the editorial and review process from first submission through to publication.

Journal of Biotechnology

ISSN: 0168-1656
5 Year impact factor: 3.6
Impact factor: 4.1

The Journal of Biotechnology (J. Biotech.) offers publication for both full-length articles and short communications on a wide range of biotechnology-related topics. Also, review articles can be submitted if they are pre-approved by one of the editors. The journal will only accept submissions with novel scientific research results that are directly relevant to biotechnological systems and/or applications (for details, please see the list below). J. Biotech. has strict rules about plagiarism. Any submission that includes parts of already published material will be rejected. This includes any attempt to re-publish already published Materials and Methods paragraphs. The journal features a "one-pass review process," i.e., eligible submissions will be reviewed, and those that need improvements (either minor or major) can be resubmitted only once before the decision about whether to accept or reject is decided by the Chief Editor. All figures need to be submitted as high-resolution files during the initial submission. All articles must be written in English, and the quality of the English language will be one of the criteria during the review process.Main Scope of the Journal:Bioprocess engineeringSystem biology, synthetic microbiologyMetabolic engineering, microbial physiologyBiorefinery, biomass engineeringBiochemical enzyme/protein engineeringMetabolic engineeringMicrobial expression systemsBiocatalyst engineeringInsect cell-based modelsMultienzyme cascade reactionsPlant-based biotechnologyOutside of the Scope:Manuscripts lacking noveltyReview articles submitted without previous invitation/confirmation by an editorEnvironmental-related subjects, e.g., waste-water treatment, bioremediation, biodegradationReports on the cloning and/or expression of naturally occurring enzymes without direct biotechnological applicationResearch on natural products without biotechnological modificationToxicological researchPharmacological researchFood science-related research without biotechnological applicationEngineering articles that do not deal with the direct improvement of biotechnological processesGenome research, especially genome sequencing reportsBenefits to authors We also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

Mechanobiology in Medicine

ISSN: 2949-9070

AimsMechanobiology in Medicine (MBM) aspires to become one of the most prominent publishing venue in mechanobiology by bringing together the most important advances in the discipline, enhancing their visibility by means of opinion and news articles, and providing overviews of the state of the art in each field through topic-, disease- or technology-focused review articles.By publishing content that traverses field boundaries, Mechanobiology in Medicine helps to build bridges between engineers, life scientists, and medical professionals. Mechanobiology is an interdisciplinary discipline that combines biology, engineering, chemistry, physics and medicine. It is a comprehensive and high-tech discipline focused on how physical forces and changes in the mechanical properties of cells and tissues contribute to development, cell differentiation, physiology, and disease-related through understanding mechanotransduction-the molecular mechanisms by which cells sense and respond to mechanical signals.ScopeMechanobiology in Medicine is a peer-reviewed, online, open access journal focused on fundamental research of mechanobiology by studyingthe structure, function and interrelationship within human body at multiple levels using principles and methods of modern natural science and engineering technology, and trying to provide novel insights into how mechanical inputs regulate cell behavior and tissue homeostasis and how their deregulation might cause disease. The journal includes research articles, reviews, and rapid communications with a focus on the mechanobiological advances for disease prevention, diagnosis and treatment.Topics covered in Mechanobiology in Medicine includeCellular and molecular mechanobiology, mechanosensors, mechanotransduction, cellular dynamics, cellular mechanical response, multitissue interactions, and mechanical regulation in diseases and healthMechanobiology in biological processes, mechanical memory, mechanobiology in development, organismal morphogenesis, and tissue and cell remodelingTechnologies in mechanobiology research, biochips, mechanobiology in biomaterials, mechanobiomarkers, single-molecule approaches, and immunoengineeringClinical applications, including translational medicine, regenerative medicine, and drug delivery

Metabolic Engineering

ISSN: 1096-7176
5 Year impact factor: 7.6
Impact factor: 6.8

An official journal of the International Metabolic Engineering SocietyAims and Scope: Metabolic Engineering (MBE) is devoted to the publication of original research papers on the directed modulation of metabolic pathways for metabolite over production or the improvement of cellular properties. Papers describing native pathway engineering and synthesis of heterologous pathways for converting microorganisms into microbial cell factories are also welcome.Experimental, computational, and modelling approaches for the elucidation of metabolic pathways and their manipulation by genetic, media, or other environmental means are presented. Efficient probing of metabolic pathways requires the application of appropriate methods from molecular biology and biochemistry, along with modeling and data analysis techniques from engineering. MBE provides a forum for communicating such interdisciplinary research, as well as relevant results in the constituent areas of biochemistry, molecular biology, applied microbiology, cellular physiology, cellular nutrition in health and disease, and biochemical engineering.Types of papers: Original Research Papers, Review Papers.Authors are also welcome to submit to MBE?s companion title, Metabolic Engineering Communications, which publishes shorter articles and those describing key elements of larger metabolic engineering efforts.
