Impact Factor: 2.73	Impact Factor: 2.44

Dear Colleague,

The open access journals, BMC Microbiology and BMC Systems Biology, are now accepting submissions for a new thematic series on “Genome engineering tools, methods, and applications”.

Guest edited by Prof. Trevor Charles (University of Waterloo), we invite submissions regarding how genome engineering methods are changing traditional microbial genetics, how they are applied in synthetic biology applications, and how they bridge the gap between the disciplines. Find out more about this exciting new series here.

How to submit

Please use our online submission system and indicate clearly in your covering letter that your manuscript is to be considered for the “Genome engineering tools, methods, and applications” thematic series.
