4. Blood

Blood, the flagship journal of the American Society of Hematology, published online and in print, provides an international forum for the publication of original articles describing basic laboratory, translational, and clinical investigations in hematology. Acceptance of manuscripts is based on the originality and importance of the observations or investigations, the quality of the work and validity of the evidence, the clarity of presentation, and the relevance to our readership and field. All articles are expected to be concise, well-organized and more...

5. Nature Protocols

Nature Protocols publishes secondary research articles - predominantly Protocols (including Protocol Updates and Protocol Extensions), but also techniques-related Reviews, Perspectives, Correspondences, Matters Arising, Commentaries, and Consensus Statements - all of which are based on published primary research papers. We cover new techniques and technologies, as well as established methods, used in all fields of the biological, chemical and clinical sciences. Articles are commissioned by the editors. Authors are welcome to submit suggestions for articles as Presubmission Enquiries, which may then be formally commissioned by the editors. more...

6. Annual Review of Biochemistry

The Annual Review of Biochemistry, in publication since 1932, sets the standard for review articles in biological chemistry and molecular biology. Since its inception, these volumes have served as an indispensable resource for both the practicing biochemist and students of biochemistry. more...

7. Trends in Biochemical Sciences

For over 40 years, Trends in Biochemical Sciences (TIBS) has kept readers up to date on recent advances across all disciplines of biochemistry and molecular biology. Through monthly, peer-reviewed publications, TIBS monitors the expanding scope of biochemistry while continuing to cover traditional subjects such as protein structure and function, signaling, and metabolism. Articles are curated by the Editor and authored by leading researchers in their respective fields. TIBS Review and Opinion articles have key goals to move beyond simply summarizing the literature to synthesizing the data, providing insights into more...

8. Journal of the American Chemical Society

The Journal of the American Chemical Society (JACS), founded in 1879, is the flagship journal of the American Chemical Society and the world's preeminent journal in all of chemistry and interfacing areas of science. This periodical is devoted to the publication of fundamental research papers and publishes approximately 19,000 pages of Articles, Communications, and Perspectives a year. Published weekly, JACS provides research essential to the field of chemistry. more...

9. Annual Review of Biophysics

The Annual Review of Biophysics, in publication since 1972, covers significant developments in the field of biophysics, including macromolecular structure, function and dynamics, theoretical and computational biophysics, molecular biophysics of the cell, physical systems biology, membrane biophysics, biotechnology, nanotechnology, and emerging techniques. more...

10. Genomics, Proteomics and Bioinformatics

Genomics, Proteomics and Bioinformatics (GPB) will no longer be published by Elsevier after Decemer 31st 2023. All articles in 2024 issues will be published by Oxford University Press (OUP) at https://academic.oup.com/gpb.
