Artificial Intelligence and Genomics

Overview

We solicit manuscripts for a topical collection on "AI and Genomics" in Human Genomics.  As you know, human genomics has become one of the most active areas of cutting-edge life sciences and grown to be one of the largest generators of data. In addition to the value of greatly enhanced experimental examination and validation, human genomics relies on emerging, powerful computational approaches, such as Big Data analyses and artificial intelligence (AI) including network science, machine learning, deep learning, text mining, knowledge-based database construction, and even quantum computing. The collection would also be a home for articles focusing on practical applications.

We welcome original articles as well as review papers. Please indicate in your cover letter that your article is intended for the topical collection on "AI and Genomics” and select the collection upon submission. Submissions can also retrospectively be assigned to the collection. Please notify the Journal Editorial Office accordingly.  

We look forward to receiving high-quality submissions of significance that can make further contributions to the field of human genomics.
