Welcome to BMC Medical Genomics published by BioMed Central
BMC Medical Genomics is an open access journal publishing original peer-reviewed research articles in all aspects of functional genomics, genome structure, genome-scale population genetics, epigenomics, proteomics, systems analysis, and pharmacogenomics in relation to human health and disease. BMC Medical Genomics (ISSN 1755-8794) is indexed/tracked/covered by PubMed, MEDLINE, BIOSIS, CAS, Thomson Reuters (ISI) and Google Scholar.
