Lifestyle Genomics

Aims & Scope

Lifestyle Genomics aims to provide a forum for highlighting new advances in the broad area of lifestyle-gene interactions and their influence on health and disease.

The journal welcomes novel contributions that investigate how genetics may influence a person’s response to lifestyle factors, such as diet and nutrition, natural health products, physical activity, and sleep, amongst others.

Additionally, contributions examining how lifestyle factors influence the expression/abundance of genes, proteins and metabolites in cell and animal models as well as in humans are also of interest.

The following are representative areas covered in the journal: • Behavioural outcomes of nutrigenomics • Bioinformatic tools for nutrigenomics and exercise genomics • Biostatistics methods for nutrigenomics and exercise genomics • Cell signaling • Chrononutrition • Diet and disease prevention • Diet-gene associations • Epigenetics • Exercise genomics • Functional foods and nutraceuticals • Functional genomics • Lifestyle interventions and the gut microbiome • Nutrient and exercise regulation of the transcriptome, proteome, and metabolome • Nutrigenetics • Nutrigenomics • Personalized nutrition • Psychological science of lifestyle behaviour • Sleep and health • Systematic reviews • Systems biology and lifestyle factors.
