EMBO reports complements its highly successful sister publication, The EMBO Journal, by providing a variety of short formats to cover topics related to biology at a molecular level. Subdivided into three sections, the journal is designed to inform not only the molecular biologist but also other members of society interested in how science is shaping the world and vice versa.
Science & Society
Essays and articles that cover the realms beyond scientific research. These articles comment on and analyse how politics, the financial world and society affect the environment in which science is performed as well as the consequences of biological research for society.
• Viewpoints - opinions from experts
• Analysis - the facts and background from science writers
• Interviews - with those shaping science
• Correspondence
• Book reviews
Reviews
