Forensic Science International publishes original contributions in the many different scientific disciplines pertaining to the forensic sciences. Fields include forensic pathology and histochemistry, chemistry, biochemistry and toxicology (including drugs, alcohol, etc.), biology (including the identification of hairs and fibres), serology, odontology, psychiatry, anthropology, the physical sciences, firearms, and document examination, as well as investigations of value to public health in its broadest sense, and the important marginal area where science and medicine interact with the law.Forensic Science International publishes:Original Research PapersReview ArticlesPreliminary CommunicationsLetters to the EditorBook ReviewsCase ReportsThe journal covers all legal aspects of the general disciplines listed above, as well as specialist topics of forensic interest that are included in, or are related to, these disciplines, e.g.:Biochemical and chemical analyses, and the forensic application of advanced analytical, physical, chemical and instrumental techniquesBitemark evidenceBattered child syndromeQuestioned documentsBallistics, projectiles and woundsFingerprints and identificationTool marksContact tracesPoisoningBreath analysersAccident investigation and mass disasters

Forensic Science International: Genetics is specifically devoted to Forensic Genetics. This branch of Forensic Science can be defined as the application of genetics to human and non-human material (in the sense of a science with the purpose of studying inherited characteristics for the analysis of inter- and intra-specific variations in populations) for the resolution of legal conflicts.The scope of the journal includes:Forensic applications of human polymorphism.Testing of paternity and other family relationships, immigration cases, typing of biological stains and tissues from criminal casework, identification of human remains by DNA testing methodologies.Description of human polymorphisms of forensic interest, with special interest in DNA polymorphisms.Autosomal DNA polymorphisms, mini- and microsatellites (or short tandem repeats, STRs), single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), X and Y chromosome polymorphisms, mtDNA polymorphisms, and any other type of DNA variation with potential forensic applications.Non-human DNA polymorphisms for crime scene investigation.Population genetics of human polymorphisms of forensic interest.Population data, especially from DNA polymorphisms of interest for the solution of forensic problems.DNA typing methodologies and strategies.Biostatistical methods in forensic genetics.Evaluation of DNA evidence in forensic problems (such as paternity or immigration cases, criminal casework, identification), classical and new statistical approaches.Standards in forensic genetics.Recommendations of regulatory bodies concerning methods, markers, interpretation or strategies or proposals for procedural or technical standards.Quality control.Quality control and quality assurance strategies, proficiency testing for DNA typing methodologies.Criminal DNA databases.Technical, legal and statistical issues.General ethical and legal issues related to forensic genetics

Peer Review Policy
All peer review is double blind and submission is online via Editorial Manager.
The journal Forensic Toxicology provides an international forum for publication of studies on toxic substances, drugs of abuse, doping agents, chemical warfare agents, and their metabolisms and analyses, which are related to laws and ethics. It includes original articles, reviews, mini-reviews, short communications, and case reports. Although a major focus of the journal is on the development or improvement of analytical methods for the above-mentioned chemicals in human matrices, appropriate studies with animal experiments are also published.Forensic Toxicology is the official publication of the Japanese Association of Forensic Toxicology (JAFT) and is the continuation of the Japanese Journal of Forensic Toxicology (ISSN 0915-9606).This publication is supported in part by a Grant-in-Aid for Publication of Scientific Research Results from the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science.

Das Forum der Psychoanalyse ist eine Diskussionsplattform für Themen der psychoanalytischen klinischen Theorie und Technik aus der Sicht der verschiedenen Strömungen im In- und Ausland. Es behandelt auch angrenzende Themen, z.B. die Verbindung zwischen Psychoanalyse und Nachbarwissenschaften, Fragen der Ausbildung, die Psychoanalyse als Beruf und Grundsatzfragen der Psychoanalyse als Wissenschaft. Die Zeitschrift wurde 1985 von Psychoanalytikern verschiedener Fachgesellschaften gegründet.
Free Radical Biology and Medicine is an international, interdisciplinary journal that publishes original contributions and reviews on a broad range of topics relating to redox biology, signaling, biological chemistry and medical implications of free radicals, reactive species, oxidants and antioxidants.Benefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

Free Radical Research aims to publish high-quality research papers, hypotheses and reviews in all areas in the fields of: • Free radicals and other reactive species in biological, clinical, environmental and other systems • Redox signalling • Antioxidants, including diet-derived antioxidants and other relevant aspects of human nutrition • Oxidative damage, mechanisms and measurement Manuscripts should contribute a significant advance to the field, supported by clearly-presented data and statistical analysis. Manuscripts should be as concise as possible subject to the need to present relevant background, data and methods. Reviewers are strongly encouraged to identify areas of the manuscript that could be shortened. FRR discourages papers that are purely descriptive (e.g. a catalogue of changes in antioxidant levels in a human disease or after administering a toxin to an animal). We also discourage ‘screening’ papers, such as the use of ‘total antioxidant activity’ assays to compare the antioxidant activities of plant extracts or herbal medicines including traditional medicines.

Target audience: Scientists, Physicians, Patients, Medical Students, Residents, Fellows, Pharmacists, Biologists, NursesAims and scope: The journal "Frontiers in Bioscience" is a modern forum for scientific communication. Data and information that are useful to investigators in any discipline in biology and medicine including Biochemistry, Microbiology, Parasitology, Virology, Immunology, Biotechnology, And Bioinformatics will be published after they have been peer reviewed. This will include reviews and research articles in basic science and clinical science, as well as technical notes and protocols. Other materials that have not been traditionally published as peer reviewed articles will also be considered for publication. This will include, rare images ,videos and sounds, and assimilated data in the form of a database on any subject in medicine and biology. The journal will include useful search strategies of internet and databases related to biology and medicine, links to medically relevant journals and the guidelines to authors of scientific journals and as well as information regarding manufacturers' products and links to manufacturers' homepages.Other items that will be posted are book reviews, as well as a list of conferences.
