Journal Title：Biotechniques

BioTechniques is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal dedicated to publishing original laboratory methods, related technical and software tools, and methods-oriented review articles that are of broad interest to professional life scientists, as well as to scientists from other disciplines (e.g., chemistry, physics, computer science, plant and agricultural science and climate science) interested in life science applications for their technologies.

Since 1983, BioTechniques has been a leading peer-reviewed journal for methods-related research. The journal considers:

Reports describing innovative new methods, platforms and software, substantive modifications to existing methods, or innovative applications of existing methods, techniques & tools to new models or scientific questions

Descriptions of technical tools that facilitate the design or performance of experiments or data analysis, such as software and simple laboratory devices

Surveys of technical approaches related to broad fields of research

Reviews discussing advancements in techniques and methods related to broad fields of research

Letters to the Editor and Expert Opinions highlighting interesting observations or cautionary tales concerning experimental design, methodology or analysis.

BioTechniques 是一本经过同行评审的开放获取期刊，致力于发表原创实验室方法、相关技术和软件工具，以及专业生命科学家以及其他领域的科学家广泛感兴趣的以方法为导向的评论文章对其技术的生命科学应用感兴趣的学科（例如化学、物理学、计算机科学、植物和农业科学以及气候科学）。
