Aims & Scope

Current Research in Biotechnology (CRBIOT) is a new primary research, gold open access journal from Elsevier.

CRBIOT publishes original papers and short communications (including viewpoints and perspectives) resulting from research in biotechnology and biotech-associated disciplines.

Current Research in Biotechnology topics covered include "core" biotechnology disciplines such as genetic and molecular engineering; plant and animal biotechnology; food biotechnology; energy biotechnology; environmental biotechnology; and tissue, cell and pathway engineering.

Submissions of manuscripts focused on biotech-associated topics in a broad sense (topics on the interface between technology and biological systems) are also encouraged, including on methods and technology with relevance for biology; molecular medicine, gene therapy, and cellular therapies; drug delivery; bioinformatics, biological big data, in silico modelling, and other computational approaches with a relevance for biology; systems biology and "omics" technologies; wearable technology and other digital health applications; natural products; analytical biotechnology and analytical techniques with applications in biology, bioproduction technologies; approaches and practices with relevance for biotech industry and business; nanobiotechnology and nanomaterials for biological applications; chemical biotechnology; pharmaceutical biotechnology; biomaterials and materials for biological applications; as well as biosensors and bioimaging technology.
