About the journal

Human Genomics focuses on the application of genomic approaches to improve understanding of human disease, drug discovery and variable drug reaction. It brings together academics and practitioners in industry who are actively interested in realising the full potential of the ever expanding Human Genome Project. The journal is published bi-monthly, fully peer-reviewed and directed by a panel of leading experts acting as editors and referees – subjects covered include:

Pharmacogenomics, Association studies, Functional genomics, Expression profiling, Proteomics, Bioinformatics, Animal models, Statistical genetics, Genetic epidemiology, Human population genetics, Comparative genomics
