New EMBO/NPG journal - A first in systems biology publishing

Lindsay Johnson EMBO Communications
EMBO - European Molecular Biology Organization

    "Molecular Systems Biology", a new electronic journal from the European Molecular Biology Organization (EMBO) and Nature Publishing Group (NPG), is now live at http://www.molecularsystemsbiology.com. "Molecular Systems Biology" represents a first on many levels. The first journal to be dedicated to the emerging fields of molecular systems biology and synthetic biology, it is also the first publication to use pioneering new systems biology technologies in the presentation of articles and data. The journal is open access, another first for EMBO and NPG and an important catalyst for data-sharing.

    "Molecular Systems Biology" publishes papers describing the properties and behaviour of complex biological systems in terms of molecular components and their interactions. The scope extends to functional genomics, structural genomics, metabolomics and synthetic biology. The journal?s team of Senior Editors is second to none, featuring Ruedi Aebersold, Peer Bork, George Church, Leroy Hood and Edison Liu.

    The journal is also forging ahead in technology. Unlike other journals in the field, "Molecular Systems Biology" uses innovative technology to allow formal, unambiguous descriptions of biological systems and sharing of data. "Molecular Systems Biology" is currently the only journal to accommodate authors submitting data in Systems Biology Mark-Up Language (SBML) and CellML, widely-used XML-based exchange formats for representing biological processes and related data.

    Help

    Search / advanced search of the idw archives
    Combination of search terms

    You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.

    Brackets

    You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).

    Phrases

    Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.

    Selection criteria

    You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).

    If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
