Physiological Genomics is soliciting manuscript submissions that describe the application of NextGen sequencing technology to characterize physiological systems. This includes manuscripts that illustrate experimental design, data analysis, and validation experiments to test hypotheses based on data from NextGen sequencing technology. This also includes studies generated from the analysis of RNAs and DNAs derived from complex or purified cells, tissues, subcellular components analyzed by DNAseq, RNAseq, ChIPseq, miRseq, methylation and other epigenetic-alteration-sensitive approaches. Contributions that illustrate the opportunities, problems, novel experimental and analysis approaches, and provide solutions that demonstrate the ability of these technologies to address problems in cellular, organismal, evolutionary, and disease physiology would be particularly useful. Finally, approaches integrating NextGen sequencing with other emerging technologies such as proteomics, metabolomics, modeling, and systems approaches are of particular interest to Physiological Genomics and its readers.
Technology papers (in the “Innovative Methodology” article type), and research articles are encouraged, although submissions in all categories will be considered.
