PLOS Genetics (formerly PLoS Genetics) is an open access peer-reviewed academic journal published monthly by PLOS. Out of the seven PLOS journals, it is one of the four "community journals" (along with PLOS Computational Biology, PLOS Pathogens, and PLOS Neglected Tropical Diseases) and aims to reflect "the full breadth and interdisciplinary nature of genetics and genomics research by publishing original contributions in all areas of biology”.PLOS Genetics was founded in 2005 by Wayne N. Frankel (from The Jackson Laboratory) and is now run by an international editorial board led by the Editors-in-Chief Gregory S. Barsh (HudsonAlpha Institute for Biotechnology, and Stanford University School of Medicine) and Gregory P. Copenhaver (University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill). All content in PLOS Genetics is published under the Creative Commons Attribution (CC BY) license, which allows free redistribution and use of content providing the original authors and source are cited.
The journal was created with the aim of providing an Open Access venue for researchers in the fields of genetics and genomics to publish research of interest to a broad genetics community. PLOS Genetics publishes research on a range of topics including gene discovery and function, population genetics, genome projects, comparative and functional genomics, medical genetics, disease biology, evolution, gene expression, complex traits, chromosome biology, and epigenetics.
