Scope
Epigenomics and Epigenetics queries the developmental origins of health and disease by cataloguing the sets of physical markings on chromatin that collaborate to stably alter gene expression.The section aims to publish innovative research from observational, clinical, and basic science on all aspects of epigenomics. Of special interest are papers which cover the following subjects:
1) developmental studies identifying novel pathways or mechanisms by which changes in early development may either increase or decrease the risk of later ill-health;
2) characterization of epigenetic processes that respond to physiological changes in the immediate environment during early life, and their contributions to later disease;
3) the role of gender in an organism’s response to an early life challenge;
4) new studies that confront existing concepts and hypotheses regarding the developmental bases of adult health and disease.

Epigenomics and Epigenetics welcomes submissions of the following article types: Book Review, Correction, Data Report, Editorial, General Commentary, Hypothesis and Theory, Methods, Mini Review, Opinion, Original Research, Perspective, Protocols, Review, Specialty Grand Challenge, Systematic Review and Technology Report.
All manuscripts must be submitted directly to the section Epigenomics and Epigenetics, where they are peer-reviewed by the Associate and Review Editors of the specialty section.
Articles published in the section Epigenomics and Epigenetics will benefit from the Frontiers impact and tiering system after online publication. Authors of published original research with the highest impact, as judged democratically by the readers, will be invited by the Chief Editor to write a Frontiers Focused Review - a tier-climbing article. This is referred to as "democratic tiering". The author selection is based on article impact analytics of original research published in all Frontiers specialty journals and sections. Focused Reviews are centered on the original discovery, place it into a broader context, and aim to address the wider community across all of Genetics and Cell and Developmental Biology.
