About the Journal
The Journal of Biological Convergence (JBC) is a peer-reviewed, open-access online publication dedicated to advancing scientific research that connects diverse dimensions of biological science. The journal’s mission is to serve as a central platform for innovative, multidisciplinary, and integrative research that unites knowledge, tools, and applications across the biological spectrum to address complex scientific and societal challenges.
Focus and Scope
JBC embraces the philosophy that all branches of biology ultimately converge in understanding life — from molecules to ecosystems, and from laboratory discoveries to real-world applications.
The journal encourages studies that cross traditional boundaries and integrate insights from multiple levels of organization, systems, or disciplines.
To ensure inclusivity of diverse research areas, JBC frames its content around three Convergence Axes:
-
Conceptual Convergence – Integrating theories, models, or frameworks across biological and interdisciplinary domains.
-
Methodological Convergence – Combining complementary tools, techniques, and datasets across scales.
-
Translational Convergence – Bridging basic biological understanding with applied outcomes in health, environment, or industry.
Submissions may include original research articles, reviews, short communications, editorials, case studies, and methodological papers that push the boundaries of conventional biological science.
Areas of Interest
The journal welcomes contributions from all areas that reflect the dynamic and expansive nature of bioconvergence, including but not limited to:
-
Computational and Systems Biology: Modeling, AI, and big-data-driven biological insights.
-
Synthetic Biology and Bioengineering: Redesign of biological systems for sustainable innovation.
-
Microbiology and Biotechnology: Microbial applications in health, environment, and industry.
-
Ecology and Evolutionary Biology: Integrative studies connecting ecological and genetic dynamics.
-
Environmental and Agricultural Bioscience: Biomonitoring, remediation, crop optimization, and sustainability.
-
Neuroscience and Physiology: Multilevel exploration of nervous and physiological systems.
-
Genomics and Multi-omics: Integrating genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, and metagenomics for holistic system understanding.
-
Biochemistry and Molecular Biology: Mechanistic insights linked to broader organismal or ecological contexts.
JBC particularly encourages manuscripts that connect distinct biological levels, concepts, or technologies to uncover unified biological principles or solutions.
