EuPA Open Proteomics is published by Elsevier on behalf of the European Proteomics Association (EuPA) and is aimed at both European and international protein scientists together with scientists who are exploiting proteomics, lipidomics, glycomics or metabolomics in any way in their studies. Expanding and complementing the society affiliate Journal of Proteomics, EuPA Open Proteomics will publish full papers, reviews, mini-reviews, short communications, perspectives, opinions, comments and book reviews on all aspects of protein science, with a focus on proteomics, lipidomics, glycomics and metabolomics, and covers the complete spectrum from basic to translational proteomics and plant, animal, microbial and human studies. Also welcome are reports on novel methodological and technical developments, including in bioinformatics and data processing, mass spectrometry imaging, pathway analysis, peptidomics, direct submissions from authors wishing to report on large data sets (submitted to raw data repositories) and descriptive studies. The journal will also consider high quality omics articles where a thorough and appropriate statistical analysis has been reported but where the findings have not been fully validated by orthogonal methods. All manuscripts are peer reviewed and must conform the highest ethical standards. EuPA Open Proteomics also publishes official EuPA reports and notes. Benefits to authors Opinion and perspectives papers containing less than 1,200 words and 2-3 figures are also welcomed by the journal.
