Aims and Scope of Briefings in Bioinformatics
Briefings in Bioinformatics is a peer-reviewed scientific journal covering bioinformatics, including reviews of databases and analytical tools for genetics and molecular biology. It also publishes primary research papers on novel bioinformatic models and tools. It is published by Oxford University Press. The EMBnet community was initially involved in the creation of the journal. BiB was also supported by an educational grant from EMBnet. Less
