BRIEF BIOINFORM
ISSN / eISSN
1467-5463 / 1477-4054
Aims and Scope
Briefings in Bioinformatics is an international forum for researchers and educators in the life sciences. The journal will also be of interest to mathematicians, statisticians and computer scientists who apply their work to biological problems. The journal publishes reviews for the users of databases and analytical tools of contemporary genetics, molecular and systems biology and is unique in providing practical help and guidance to the non-specialist in computerized methodology. Papers range in scope and depth, from the introductory level to specific details of protocols and analyses encompassing bacterial, plant, fungal, animal and human data.
Detailed subject areas covered by the journal include: genetic studies of phenotypes and genotypes, mapping, DNA sequencing, expression profiling, gene expression studies, microarrays, alignment methods, protein profiles and HMMs, lipids, metabolic and signalling pathways, structure determination and function prediction, phylogenetic studies and education and training.

Verified Reviews
Received: 20th December 2022
Revision received: 9th February 2023 (Three reviewers provided many comments, and the editor requested major revisions. In my personal opinion, the revisions were all minor, and the modifications were well done.)
Accepted: 16th March 2023 (Surprisingly, the review and editing process took even longer than the first round. I completely cannot understand why!)
Published: 19th April 2023
--------------------------------------------
The overall quality of the journal is acceptable. Additionally, I have published three papers in Bioinformatics, and personally, I feel that Bioinformatics is better than Briefings. The quality of the peer review process is also higher in Bioinformatics. I'm not sure why Briefings has a higher impact factor. However, the significant decline in impact factor indicates an excess of inflated numbers. In comparison, I would recommend Bioinformatics.
