Biochimica et Biophysica Acta - General Subjects

Aims & Scope

BBA General Subjects accepts for submission either original, hypothesis-driven studies or reviews covering subjects in biochemistry and biophysics that have general scientific interest for a wide audience.

Interdisciplinary studies are encouraged.

Descriptive studies without biochemical or biophysical mechanistic evidence and insights are discouraged.

Preferred topics are: biomedicine: fundamental and emerging topics in biochemistry/biophysics with potential medical implications nanobiology/nanotechnology: nanoparticles, nanotoxicology, nanomedicine omics: genomics, proteomics, lipidomics, glycomics, bioinformatics experimentally addressing a defined biological question chemical biology: chemical compounds, drug mechanisms, synthesis of novel compounds, click chemistry.

Etc.
