Your research can change the world
More on impact ›
The Genomic Analysis section publishes fundamental and applied research addressing open questions in the field growing around computational genomics. The focus is on improving genome and metagenome assembly and analyses as well as their structural and functional annotation and prediction, particularly protein-coding and RNA genes and gene expression regulation elements.
The Genomic Analysis section of Frontiers in Bioinformatics publishes fundamental and applied research addressing open questions in the field growing around computational genomics. The focus is on improving genome and metagenome assembly and downstream analyses such as prediction and functional annotation of genes and regulatory elements of gene expression. An accurate, evolutionarily consistent annotation must be supported at genomic (pan-genomes), transcriptomic and proteomic levels. Therefore the section embraces efficient algorithms constructing pairwise and multiple sequence alignment as well as reconstructing evolutionary dependences between genes and genomes. Furthermore, we invite contributions focused on the analysis of raw metagenomic reads themselves and integration of metagenomic data with other data types (including other omics data and phenotypic metadata) for characterization, association testing, and prediction.
To be considered for publication a manuscript has to offer significant bioinformatics content, such as introduction of a new method or improving state-of-the-art methods in genomic analysis.
The Genomic Analysis section of Frontiers in Bioinformatics invites for publication high-quality papers in the following areas:
Note that at times the subject of your research could fit better to the sister sections of Frontiers in Bioinformatics.
