About the journal
Current Issues in Molecular Biology (CIMB) publishes high quality critical review papers, in English, in all areas of molecular biology, including plant and animal systems, human genetics, molecular microbiology, genomics, biomedicine, and biotechnology.
Reviews are selected on the basis of topicality, originality, objectivity, and relevance to a broad readership encompassing research scientists, biomedical scientists, and health professionals. All manuscripts undergo a strict peer-review process and are reviewed by a member of the editorial board and at least one other appropriate individual.
