 Welcome to Biology Direct
  An online journal published by BioMed Central

NEW MATHEMATICAL BIOLOGY SECTION LAUNCHED

Biology Direct considers original research articles, hypotheses, comments, discovery notes and reviews in selected subject areas, and will eventually cover the full spectrum of biology. Subject areas already launched include Genomics, Bioinformatics and Systems Biology, Immunology, and Mathematical Biology.

Biology Direct aims to provide authors and readers of research articles with a novel system of peer review. This will include making the author responsible for obtaining reviewers' reports, via the journal's Editorial Board; making the peer review process open rather than anonymous; and publishing the reviewers' reports along with the articles, thus increasing both the responsibility and the reward of the referees and eliminating sources of abuse in the refereeing process. See 'about Biology Direct' and the Biology Direct instructions for authors for further information.
