Aims and Scope
Human Mutation is a peer-reviewed journal that offers publication of original Research Articles, Methods, Mutation Updates, Reviews, Database Articles, Rapid Communications, and Letters on broad aspects of mutation research in humans. Reports of novel DNA variations and their phenotypic consequences, reports of SNPs demonstrated as valuable for genomic analysis, descriptions of new molecular detection methods, and novel approaches to clinical diagnosis are welcomed. Novel reports of gene organization at the genomic level, reported in the context of mutation investigation, may be considered. The journal provides a unique forum for the exchange of ideas, methods, and applications of interest to molecular, human, and medical geneticists in academic, industrial, and clinical research settings worldwide.

Verified Reviews
Note: Verified reviews are sourced from across review platforms and social media globally.
Recently, I submitted a research article which has just been accepted. It was for a very prestigious journal in the field of genetics, with highly professional reviewers who asked very sharp questions. The formatting requirements were indeed very tedious, but the submission experience was great! Due to the impact of COVID-19, the initial review took about one and a half months. It required major revisions and I was given three months to complete them. After submitting the revised version, it took a little over three weeks to receive minor revisions, which I quickly addressed by correcting a few errors and adding database numbers. Less than 24 hours after resubmitting, I received the acceptance notification. The editor was very nice and the efficiency was extremely high!
