A new scientific journal linked to a genetic database: towards a novel publication modality.

Abstract

Human Genomics and Proteomics (HGP) is a new genomics and systems biology journal that is affiliated with an international, open access database. In addition to publishing original research articles and review articles, the journal will also include short descriptions of genetic datasets pertaining to population/ethnic-specific mutation frequencies. HGP is the first scientific journal from SAGE-Hindawi Access to Research, a partnership designed to create a family of open access journals between the publishers SAGE and Hindawi.
