Explore & Discover Scientific Journals

Cell Discovery, published by Springer Nature in partnership with the Shanghai Institutes for Biological Sciences (SIBS), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), aims to provide an open access platform for scientists to publish their high quality works. Cell Discovery publishes results of high significance and broad interest in all areas of molecular and cell biology, including (but not limited to) the following topics: cell growth and differentiation, signal transduction, apoptosis, stem cells, development, immunology, neurosciences, plant cell biology, chromatin modulation, epigenetics and transcription.

Biomolecules (ISSN 2218-273X) is an international, peer-reviewed open access journal focusing on biogenic substances and their biological functions, structures, interactions with other molecules, and their microenvironment as well as biological systems. Biomolecules publishes reviews, regular research papers and short communications.  Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced.

npj Genomic Medicine is an international, peer-reviewed journal dedicated to publishing the most important scientific advances in all aspects of genomics and its application in the practice of medicine. The journal defines genomic medicine as "diagnosis, prognosis, prevention and/or treatment of disease and disorders of the mind and body, using approaches informed or enabled by knowledge of the genome and the molecules it encodes." Relevant and high-impact papers that encompass studies of individuals, families, or populations are considered for publication. An emphasis will include coupling detailed phenotype and genome sequencing information, both enabled by new technologies and informatics, to delineate the underlying aetiology of disease. Clinical recommendations and/or guidelines of how that data should be used in the clinical management of those patients in the study, and others, are also encouraged.

The aim of Molecular Therapy—Methods & Clinical Development is to build upon the success of Molecular Therapy in publishing important peer-reviewed methods and procedures, as well as translational advances in the broad array of fields under the molecular therapy umbrella. Topics of particular interest within the journal's scope include: Gene vector engineering and production, Methods for targeted genome editing and engineering, Methods and technology development for cell reprogramming and directed differentiation of pluripotent cells, Methods for gene and cell vector delivery, Development of biomaterials and nanoparticles for applications in gene and cell therapy and regenerative medicine, Analysis of gene and cell vector biodistribution and tracking, Pharmacology/toxicology studies of new and next-generation vectors, Methods for cell isolation, engineering, culture, expansion, and transplantation, Cell processing, storage, and banking for therapeutic application, Preclinical and QC/QA assay development, Translational and clinical scale-up and Good Manufacturing procedures and process development, Clinical protocol development, Computational and bioinformatic methods for analysis, modeling, or visualization of biological data, Negotiating the regulatory approval process and obtaining such approval for clinical trials.

The Journal of Experimental Zoology – A publishes articles at the interface between Development, Physiology, Ecology and Evolution. Contributions that help to reveal how molecular, functional and ecological variation relate to one another are particularly welcome. The Journal publishes original research in the form of rapid communications or regular research articles, as well as perspectives and reviews on topics pertaining to the scope of the Journal. Acceptable articles are limited to studies on animals.
