Molecular Omics publishes molecular level experimental and bioinformatics research in the -omics sciences, including genomics, proteomics, transcriptomics and metabolomics. We also welcome multidisciplinary papers presenting studies combining different types of omics, or the interface of omics and other fields such as systems biology or chemical biology. Topics include:

• Omics studies to gain mechanistic insight into biological processes - for example, determining the mode of action of a drug, or the basis of a particular phenotype, such as drought tolerance
• Omics studies for clinical applications, with validation, such as finding biomarkers for diagnostics or potential new drug targets
• Omics studies looking at the sub-cellular make-up of cells - for example, the subcellular localisation of certain proteins or post-translational modifications, and new imaging techniques
• Studies presenting new tools to support omics studies, including new spectroscopic/chromatographic techniques, chip-based/array technologies and new classification/data analysis techniques

Molecular Omics only accepts articles which are of high importance and interest, providing significant new insight into important chemical or biological problems; either fundamental research which significantly increases understanding, or research which demonstrates clear functional benefits.

Papers reporting new results which could be routinely predicted, which do not show a significant improvement over known research, or which are of interest only to the specialist in the area are not suitable for publication in the journal.
