Overview

Top Research Topics at Current Genomics?

Current Genomics mainly tackles studies in Genetics, Computational biology, Gene, Bioinformatics and Genome. While Genetics is the focus of Current Genomics, it also provided insights into the studies of Evolutionary biology and Cell biology. It features Computational biology research that overlaps with concepts in Genomics.

The work on Gene presented in Current Genomics focuses on Gene expression in particular. It explores issues in Bioinformatics which can be linked to other research areas like Epigenetics, Disease and microRNA.

  • Genetics (33.42%)
  • Computational biology (20.72%)
  • Gene (20.55%)

What are the most cited papers published in the journal?

  • MicroRNA: Biogenesis, Function and Role in Cancer. (895 citations)
  • Functional properties and genomics of glucose transporters. (434 citations)
  • Estrogen signaling multiple pathways to impact gene transcription. (424 citations)

Research areas of the most cited articles at Current Genomics:

The published articles tackle a plethora of topics, such as Genetics, Bioinformatics, Gene, Cell biology and Disease. Issues in Bioinformatics were discussed in the published papers, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Cancer, microRNA, Epigenetics, DNA sequencing and Candidate gene. In addition to Disease research, the most cited publications aim to explore topics under Neuroscience and Retinitis pigmentosa.

What topics the last edition of the journal is best known for?

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Mutation

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

Current Genomics generally zeroes in on subjects such as Computational biology, Genome, Gene, Biotechnology and Function (biology). The presented research on Computational biology deals specifically with Identification (biology) but it also addresses topics in Genetic model, Exome sequencing and Polycystic kidney disease. Some problems in Genome that were presented in the journal overlapped with concepts under Cis-regulatory element, Chromosome, Systems theory, Regulation of gene expression and DNA sequencing.

The discussions emphasized the topic of Gene in an attempt to further explore the field of Genetics. Studies in Genetics and Potassium are the key highlights in Current Genomics. While Function (biology) is the key highlight in it, it also covered some subjects on Leucine zipper and Cell biology.

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

  • Plant RABs: Role in Development and in Abiotic and Biotic Stress Responses (2 citations)
  • Recent Advances in Genome-wide Analyses of Plant Potassium Transporter Families (1 citations)
  • Bacterial Protein Interaction Networks: Connectivity is Ruled by Gene Conservation, Essentiality and Function (1 citations)

Papers citation over time

A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.

The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.

The top authors publishing in Current Genomics (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Yuri B. Yurov (12 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition,
  • Svetlana G. Vorsanova (10 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition,
  • Edward R. Dougherty (10 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Jolanta Dorszewska (9 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Girdhar K. Pandey (8 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition.

The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.

Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered

The top affiliations publishing in Current Genomics (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Texas A&M University (15 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Chinese Academy of Sciences (13 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition the same number as at the previous edition,
  • Russian Academy of Sciences (10 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Michigan State University (9 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Jawaharlal Nehru University (9 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition, 2 less than at the previous edition.

The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.

Publication chance based on affiliation

The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.

The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.

During the most recent 2021 edition, 0.00% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 23.33% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 3.33% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 3.33% of all publications and 70.00% were from other institutions.

Returning Authors Index

A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.

The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.

Returning Institution Index

The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.

The experience to innovation index

Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).

The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:

  • Novice - P < 5 or C < 25 (the number of publications less than 5 or the number of citations less than 25),
  • Competent - P < 10 or C < 100 (the number of publications less than 10 or the number of citations less than 100),
  • Experienced - P < 25 or C < 625 (the number of publications less than 25 or the number of citations less than 625),
  • Master - P < 50 or C < 2500 (the number of publications less than 50 or the number of citations less than 2500),
  • Star - P ≥ 50 and C ≥ 2500 (both the number of publications greater than 50 and the number of citations greater than 2500).

The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
