Open access publisher BioMed Central and the Kennel Club have announced the launch of the journal Canine Genetics and Epidemiology.
The journal addresses genetic, genomic and epidemiological research in both domestic and wild canids, relating to breed and species diversity, and canine evolution. It will be led by two Editors-in-Chief – Bill Ollier and Gustavo Aguirre.
Bill Ollier is Professor of Immunogenetics and Co-Director of Centre for Integrated Genomic Medical Research at Manchester University. Gustavo Aguirre is Professor of Medical Genetics and Ophthalmology at the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine. They will be supported by an international Editorial Board.
Canine Genetics and Epidemiology is published with the support and backing of the Kennel Club, the UK's largest organisation dedicated to the health and welfare of dogs.
