Seminars in Cell and Developmental Biology is a review journal dedicated to keeping scientists informed of developments in the field of molecular cell and developmental biology, on a topic by topic basis. Each issue is thematic in approach, devoted to an important topic of interest to cell and developmental biologists, focusing on the latest advances and their specific implications. Every issue is edited by a guest editor, an Internationally acknowledged expert in the field, and contains six to eight authoritative invited reviews on different aspects of the subject area. The aim of each issue is to provide a coordinated, readable, and lively review of a selected area, published rapidly to ensure currency.

Differentiation is a multidisciplinary journal dealing with topics relating to cell differentiation, development, cellular structure and function, and cancer. Differentiation of eukaryotes at the molecular level and the use of transgenic and targeted mutagenesis approaches to problems of differentiation are of particular interest to the journal. The journal will publish full-length articles containing original work in any of these areas. We will also publish reviews and commentaries on topics of current interest. The principal subject areas the journal covers are: • embryonic patterning and organogenesis • human development and congenital malformation • mechanisms of cell lineage commitment • tissue homeostasis and oncogenic transformation • establishment of cellular polarity • stem cell differentiation • cell reprogramming mechanisms • stability of the differentiated state • cell and tissue interactions in vivo and in vitro • signal transduction pathways in development and differentiation • carcinogenesis and cancer • mechanisms involved in cell growth and division especially relating to cancer • differentiation in regeneration and ageing • therapeutic applications of differentiation processes.
