Abstract
Welcome to Investigative Genetics
Highlights
The initial questions often asked when a new journal appears are, “What is different about this journal compared with existing ones?”, and “Why should I contribute to this journal?” These questions are becoming even more relevant with the appearance of many new journals in various areas of science and a substantial contribution from online-only publishers, because the forum in which one publishes one’s work impacts its value, distribution, and communication

The journal aims to reflect the breadth of molecular genetic and genomic research, its development and validation, and its application to a greater understanding, improvement in quality of life, and enhanced safety in our society. It bridges the gap between different areas of science that exploit molecular genetics and genomics, allowing findings and developments to be disseminated efficiently and effectively across disciplines
