Distribution and Regularity of Genetic Epidemiology Interpreted from Molecular Perspective

Dear Colleagues,

Genetic epidemiology is a field that combines the principles of genetics and epidemiology to understand the distribution and determinants of hereditary diseases in different populations. It seeks to identify genetic factors that influence disease susceptibility, progression, and response to treatment. This Issue delves into various studies that explore the epidemiology and molecular epidemiology of different hereditary diseases. These studies provide insights into the burden of hereditary diseases in children, frequent forms of hereditary diseases, and the heterogeneity of hereditary diseases in ethnic groups. The Issue also highlights the importance of molecular genetics in understanding the molecular nature of hereditary diseases, such as hearing disorders, oculocutaneous albinism, hereditary ophthalmic, and neurological pathology.

Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English.
