STM publisher Elsevier, Netherlands, has announced the launch of an online-only, open access journal - Translational Proteomics. The journal is devoted to transferring fundamental discoveries in the field of proteomics to clinical applications, accelerating understanding and treatment of human diseases.
Jean-Charles Sanchez, Associate Professor at the University of Geneva, Head of the Biomedical Research Proteomics Group and Director of the Proteomics Core Facility of the Faculty of Medicine, will serve as Editor-in-Chief.
The journal aims to cover all areas of research in human proteomics using multi-disciplinary approaches to untangle complex disease processes, such as oncology, neurology, immunology, cardiovascular diseases, infectious diseases and any internal medical disorder. Special sections within the journal will highlight research in areas like systems biology and integrative bioinformatics, clinical proteomics and personalized medicine, comparative proteomics and drug development, medical bioinformatics and biostatistics, food and health.
