Genomic Press: Bridging Neuroscience from Bench to Society

Welcome to Genomic Press, a paradigm shift in scientific publishing. Our initial focus encompasses psychiatry, neurology, and fundamental neuroscience. As we launch, our mission is clear: to forge a comprehensive bridge from molecular biology and genetics through clinical research, novel treatments, and trials, extending to societal impacts, including epidemiology and population science.

At Genomic Press, we recognize the continuum of scientific discovery and its potential to revolutionize our understanding of the brain and mind. We aim to cultivate a broad perspective of neuroscience, connecting the intricate components from genes and molecules to the complexities of mental health, neurological disorders, and their societal implications.

We are committed to fostering an environment that nurtures breakthroughs, champions innovation, and encourages discourse across the diverse spectrum of neuroscience. To this end, we are introducing new journals that provide researchers worldwide with platforms to showcase their insights and discoveries.

Our editorial process ensures swift, fair, and thorough peer review of all submissions. Experienced senior editors guide the evaluation of each manuscript based on its intellectual merit, regardless of the authors' affiliations or geographic location. Our editorial team works closely with authors, providing clear and constructive feedback to enhance the quality and impact of their research.

Recognizing the importance of research visibility in today's interconnected world, Genomic Press aims to maximize the exposure of authors' work. We utilize social media channels and press releases to spotlight research, ensuring it reaches a global audience and contributes to scientific discourse at the broadest level.

Genomic Press is not just a publishing house; we are your partners in scientific communication. As we prepare for our full-scale launch, we look forward to embarking on this exciting journey together, pushing the frontiers of neuroscience and contributing to improving global health. Join us as we work to transform the landscape of scientific publishing.

Unraveling Complexity from DNA to Brain Disorders

Genomic Press will redefine the narrative of medical research and its impact on society. Our focus extends from the intricacies of our genetic blueprints to the final manifestations of complex disorders. While every life story begins with the DNA, we are far more than just our genes. The final health outcomes in common and complex disorders represent the confluence of a myriad of processes. This includes not only genetic and biochemical factors but also metabolic and inflammatory responses. These biological phenomena occur in the backdrop of our interactions with a vast range of environmental exposures, from chemical agents to social influences. Our objective is to foster a broad understanding of these complex interactions. We aim to publish research along the continuum from genetic underpinnings all the way to the biological and environmental contexts that ultimately influence health and disease.
