New Section: Comparative genomics and proteomics!
An International Journal
Please bookmark this URL: http://www.elsevier.com/locate/cbp
Editors-in-Chief:
Thomas P. Mommsen, Patrick J. Walsh
See editorial board for all editors information
Description
The Journal receives editorial direction from all the major societies in the field (European
Society for Comparative Physiology and Biochemistry,
the
Japanese Society for Comparative Physiology and Biochemistry, Canadian
Society of Zoologists (CBP Section), the Society for Experimental Biology,
the Society for Integrative and Comparative Biology (formerly the American Society
for Zoologists), the Australian and New Zealand Society for Comparative
Physiology and Biochemistry, the South American Society for Comparative
Physiology & Biochemistry, the Russian Physiological Society, and the Chinese Association for Physiological Sciences)
In order to better serve its readership, CBP has undergone a major transformation over the past few
years with new editors, new associate editors, new aims and scope, redefined sections and new society affiliations.
The Journal publishes
peer-reviewed original articles emphasizing comparative and environmental biology, pharmacology, toxicology and endocrinology of animals.
Adaptation and evolution as organizing principles are encouraged. Studies on mammalian biochemistry and physiology will be considered
if approached in a comparative context.
SECTIONS:
PART A: MOLECULAR & INTEGRATIVE
PHYSIOLOGY This section deals with molecular, cellular, integrative, and ecological physiology. Topics include bioenergetics,
circulation, development, excretion, ion regulation, endocrinology, neurobiology, nutrition, respiration, and thermal biology. Study
on regulatory mechanisms at any level of organization such as signal transduction and cellular interactions and control of behavior are
encouraged.
PART B: BIOCHEMISTRY & MOLECULAR BIOLOGY covers biochemical and molecular
biology aspects of metabolism, enzymology, regulation, nutrition, signal transduction, promoters, gene structure and regulation, metabolite
and cell constituents, macromolecular structures, adaptational mechanisms and evolutionary principles.
PART
C: TOXICOLOGY & PHARMACOLOGYis concerned with chemical and drug action at different levels of organization, biotransformation
of
xenobiotics, mechanisms of toxicity, including reactive oxygen
species and carcinogenesis, endocrine disruptors, natural products
chemistry, and signal transduction with a molecular approach to these fields.
PART D: GENOMICS & PROTEOMICScovers the broader comprehensive approaches to comparative biochemistry and physiology that can be generally
termed as " -omics", e.g., genomics, functional genomics (transcriptomics), proteomics, metabolomics, and underlying bioinformatics.
Papers dealing with fundamental aspects and hypotheses in comparative physiology and biochemistry are encouraged rather than studies
whose main focus is purely technical or methodological.
