Journal Title：Human Genetics

Human Genetics is a monthly journal publishing original and timely articles on all aspects of human genetics. The Journal particularly welcomes articles in the areas of Behavioral genetics, Bioinformatics, Cancer genetics and genomics, Cytogenetics, Developmental genetics, Disease association studies, Dysmorphology, ELSI (ethical, legal and social issues), Evolutionary genetics, Gene expression, Gene structure and organization, Genetics of complex diseases and epistatic interactions, Genetic epidemiology, Genome biology, Genome structure and organization, Genotype-phenotype relationships, Human Genomics, Immunogenetics and genomics, Linkage analysis and genetic mapping, Methods in Statistical Genetics, Molecular diagnostics, Mutation detection and analysis, Neurogenetics, Physical mapping and Population Genetics. Articles reporting animal models relevant to human biology or disease are also welcome. Preference will be given to those articles which address clinically relevant questions or which provide new insights into human biology.

Unless reporting entirely novel and unusual aspects of a topic, clinical case reports, cytogenetic case reports, papers on descriptive population genetics, articles dealing with the frequency of polymorphisms or additional mutations within genes in which numerous lesions have already been described, and papers that report meta-analyses of previously published datasets will normally not be accepted.

The Journal typically will not consider for publication manuscripts that report merely the isolation, map position, structure, and tissue expression profile of a gene of unknown function unless the gene is of particular interest or is a candidate gene involved in a human trait or disorder.

《人類遺傳學》是一份月刊，發表有關人類遺傳學各個方面的原創和及時文章。該期刊特別歡迎行為遺傳學、生物信息學、癌癥遺傳學和基因組學、細胞遺傳學、發育遺傳學、疾病關聯研究、畸形學、ELSI（倫理、法律和社會問題）、進化遺傳學、基因表達、基因結構和組織、復雜疾病和上位性相互作用的遺傳學、遺傳流行病學、基因組生物學、基因組結構和組織、基因型-表型關系、人類基因組學、免疫遺傳學和基因組學、連鎖分析和遺傳圖譜、統計遺傳學方法、分子診斷、突變檢測和分析、神經遺傳學、物理圖譜和群體遺傳學等領域的文章。也歡迎報道與人類生物學或疾病相關的動物模型的文章。優先考慮那些解決臨床相關問題或提供人類生物學新見解的文章。

除非報告主題的全新和不尋常方面，否則臨床病例報告、細胞遺傳學病例報告、描述性群體遺傳學論文、處理基因內多態性或其他突變頻率的文章（其中已經描述了許多病變）以及報告先前發布的數據集的薈萃分析的論文通常不會被接受。

除非該基因特別令人感興趣或為與人類特征或疾病有關的候選基因，否則期刊通常不會考慮發表僅報告未知功能基因的分離、圖譜位置、結構和組織表達譜的手稿。

Human Genetics創刊于1964年，由Springer Berlin Heidelberg出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋生物 - 遺傳學全領域，此刊是該細分領域中屬于非常不錯的SCI期刊，在行業細分領域中學術影響力較大，專業度認可很高，所以對原創文章要求創新性較高，如果您的文章質量很高，可以嘗試。平均審稿速度 約1月 ，影響因子指數3.8，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預警名單，廣大學者值得一試。
