生物信息學簡報是生命科學研究人員和教育工作者的國際論壇。數(shù)學家、統(tǒng)計學家和將他們的工作應用于生物學問題的計算機科學家也會對該雜志感興趣。該雜志為當代遺傳學、分子生物學和系統(tǒng)生物學數(shù)據(jù)庫和分析工具的用戶發(fā)表評論，在向非計算機方法學專家提供實際幫助和指導方面具有獨特性。論文涉及范圍和深度，從入門級到協(xié)議的具體細節(jié)，并分析了包括細菌、植物、真菌、動物和人類數(shù)據(jù)的分析。該雜志涵蓋的詳細學科領域包括:表型和基因型的遺傳研究、圖譜、DNA測序、表達譜、基因表達研究、微陣列、比對方法、蛋白質譜和HMMs、脂類、代謝和信號通路、結構確定和功能預測、系統(tǒng)發(fā)育研究和教育培訓。

Briefings in Bioinformatics is an international forum for researchers and educators in the life sciences. The journal will also be of interest to mathematicians, statisticians and computer scientists who apply their work to biological problems. The journal publishes reviews for the users of databases and analytical tools of contemporary genetics, molecular and systems biology and is unique in providing practical help and guidance to the non-specialist in computerized methodology. Papers range in scope and depth, from the introductory level to specific details of protocols and analyses encompassing bacterial, plant, fungal, animal and human data. Detailed subject areas covered by the journal include: genetic studies of phenotypes and genotypes, mapping, DNA sequencing, expression profiling, gene expression studies, microarrays, alignment methods, protein profiles and HMMs, lipids, metabolic and signalling pathways, structure determination and function prediction, phylogenetic studies and education and training.
