Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy (ISSN 2059-3635 (online), ISSN 2095-9907 (print), CN 51-1758/R) is a new open access journal, which aims to accomplish timely publication of the latest discoveries and progress in both basic science and clinical research related to signal transduction and targeted therapy. It will include research on major human diseases, including but not limited to: cancer, cardiovascular diseases, autoimmune diseases, and nervous system diseases.

To an extent, all life scientists are geneticists because genetic technology and the accumulation of genomic information have enriched all of biology. You may or may not call yourself a geneticist, but if you work on or with genes you need to know about the latest developments. Nature Reviews Genetics covers the full scientific breadth of modern genetics, capturing its excitement, diversity and implications. Subjects Covered: -Genomics: genome sequencing, genome projects, bioinformatics, cancer genomics, metagenomics, pharmacogenomics, resources- Functional genomics: transcriptomics, functional genomics screens, bioinformatics- Evolutionary genetics: evo-devo, genome evolution, comparative genomics, population genetics, phylogenetics- Technology: new techniques, experimental strategies, therapy, applied genetics and genomics, computational biology- Gene expression: gene regulatory elements, transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation, regulatory RNAs, broad perspectives on gene regulation, gene expression profiling, gene regulatory networks- Multifactorial genetics: complex traits, mapping strategies, technology, genetic variation- Disease: disease gene identification, relationship between genotype and phenotype, molecular pathology of genetic disease, complex disease, disease susceptibility/resistance- Chromosome biology: DNA elements, telomeres, centromeres, mobile elements, chromosome stability, DNA damage, meiosis and mitosis, nuclear organization, artificial chromosomes- Epigenetics: DNA methylation, histone modification, chromatin structure, imprinting, chromatin remodeling, epigenomics- Developmental biology: patterning, differentiation, stem cells, reproductive technology- Systems and networks: systems biology, biological networks, synthetic biology, modelling- Ethical, legal and social implications of genetics and genomics

Nature Genetics publishes the very highest quality research in genetics. It encompasses genetic and functional genomic studies on human and plant traits and on other model organisms. Current emphasis is on the genetic basis for common and complex diseases and on the functional mechanism, architecture and evolution of gene networks, studied by experimental perturbation. Integrative genetic topics comprise, but are not limited to: -Genes in the pathology of human disease -Molecular analysis of simple and complex genetic traits -Cancer genetics -Agricultural genomics -Developmental genetics -Regulatory variation in gene expression -Strategies and technologies for extracting function from genomic data -Pharmacological genomics -Genome evolution -Nature Genetics
