Mary Ann Liebert, Inc., publishers announces the launch of our latest Gold Open Access journal Gene x Environment (GxE)The peer-reviewed academic journal open access to all authors.
This new journal will include all aspects of gene by environment research, including essential peer reviewed content on genetic determinants, environmental epigenetics, chemical and nonchemical stressors, health outcomes, functional genomics complex traits, molecular epidemicology, and many other topics.
Spearheaded by Editor in Chief Graham Parker PhD, of Wayne State University School of Medicine, Department of Pediatrics, Center for Urban Responses to Environmental Stressors Detroit Michigan, Editor-in-Chief of Stem Cells and Development, and Executive Editor Nucleic Acid Therapeutics, GxE aims to be a top peer-reviewed journal publishing outstanding original and perspective research across all facets in the Gene x Environment research areas.
“This new peer-reviewed journal is essential because our understanding of our genome fails to successfully predict individual longevity and health outcomes,” says Dr. Graham Parker. “To quote Francis Collins paraphrase, ‘genetics loads the gun, and environment pulls the trigger.’ Understanding the etiology of disease triggered by exposures to chemical and nonchemical stressors requires a multi-disciplinary approach. This new journal will provide a much-needed home for global research scattered across domains and health disciplines to address the sources, mechanisms, outcomes and risk mitigation associated with our lived experience.”
This new title will target researchers in the fields of epidemiology and epigenetics, genomics and genetics, exposure science and toxicology, biology, biomedical science, bioinformatics and translational medicine.
GxEWe welcome original research papers and reviews, perspectives, commentsaries and short reports on any aspect of gene-by-environment research.
The following topics are covered Gene x Environment include:
- Genetic Determinants Of Environmental Risk
- Environmental Epigenetics
- Exposomics
- Developmental Health Outcomes and Chemical and Non-chemical Stressors
- Functional Genomics for Complex Traits
- Molecular Epidemiology
- Social Determinants of Health
- Genome-Wide Association Studies and Metabolomics
- Differential susceptibility to environmental triggers
- Gene X Environment Screening Tool Development
- Gene X Environment Modeling
- Precision Medicine
About the Editor-in Chief: Graham Parker, PhD
It is a privilege to serve as the primary investigator of the Integrative Health Science Facility Core at the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences Center for Urban Responses Environmental Stressors, CURES. I have eight years of experience in facilitating multidisciplinary, multi-institutional research as well as team building to address environmental health concerns and funding opportunities. As a research faculty member at Wayne State University School of Medicine in Detroit MI, I have extensive experience in developing in vitro models to test cell model exposure to caffeine, nicotine, and alcohol. As Editor-in-Chief for Stem Cells and Development, I am also the Executive Editor of Stem Cells and Development. Nucleic Acid Therapeutics, and Ethical Advisor to Mary Ann Liebert, Inc. publishers.
