Aims & Scope
Current Opinion in Cell Biology (COCEBI) publishes authoritative, comprehensive, and systematic reviews. COCEBI helps specialists keep up to date with a clear and readable synthesis on current advances cell biology. Expert authors annotate the most interesting papers from the expanding volume of information published today, saving valuable time and giving the reader insight on areas of importance. Current Opinion in Cell Biology is part of the Current Opinion and Research (CO+RE) suite of journals and is a companion to the new primary research, open access journal, Current Research in Cell Biology (CRCBIO). CO+RE journals leverage the Current Opinion legacy—of editorial excellence, high-impact, and global reach—to ensure they are a widely read resource that is integral to scientists’ workflow. Current Opinion in Cell Biology serves as an invaluable source of information for researchers, lecturers, teachers, professionals, policy makers and students. The subject of cell biology is divided into six themed sections, each of which is reviewed once a year. Themes include cell architecture; cell signaling; cell nucleus; membrane trafficking; cell dynamics; and cell differentiation and disease.
