Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Improved understanding of the interaction between genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors holds great promise to provide deeper insight into the mechanisms underlying phenotypic variation and adaptive potential, each having important implications for biomedical research as well as deciphering the natural world around us. This Special Issue, entitled “Genes & Environments” will represent a collection of high-quality, original research or review articles focusing on recent advances in the study of gene-environment interaction, including but not limited to the molecular mechanisms by which genomes and environments interact, the phenotypic effects of gene-environment interaction, and novel analytical methods or approaches. We would like to invite submissions from Editorial Board Members of Genes to contribute pioneering papers reflecting the latest progress in their research fields, as well as invited papers from relevant experts, and encourage invitees to extend this opportunity to colleagues with expertise in relevant to “Genes & Environments”. With your contributions, we aim to represent our Section as an attractive open-access publishing platform for cutting-edge research related to gene-environment interaction.
