10th Anniversary Collection

Since its launch in 2000, Genome Biology has become a premier journal for genomics research. We are celebrating our success over the last ten years with a series of exciting reviews and special content that mark key developments in the genomics field over this period.

GWASs and the age of human as the model organism for autoimmune genetic research

Genetic studies have identified more than 150 autoimmune loci, and next-generation sequencing will identify more. Is it time to make human the model organism for autoimmune research?

The origin and early evolution of eukaryotes in the light of phylogenomics

Phylogenomics of eukaryote supergroups suggest a highly complex last common ancestor of eukaryotes and a key role of mitochondrial endosymbiosis in the origin of eukaryotes.

The next frontier of systems biology: higher-order and interspecies interactions

Systems approaches are not so different in essence from classical genetic and biochemical approaches, and in the future may become adopted so widely that the term 'systems biology' itself will become obsolete.
