Frontiers in Bioscience provides a platform where exchange of scientific information can take place freely among investigators, scientists, physicians and patients. Frontiers in Bioscience journal publishes manuscripts, books, lectures, databases and other useful information. Publishing data in scientific journals is the accepted means for dissemination of information in science. Publications are important to investigators since they reflect the extent of their scholarly activities and are needed for their promotion and are required for obtaining grants. They are also the sole accepted method for dissemination of information important to other investigators and the public. Therefore, "Frontiers in Bioscience" considers all publications as important communications. Attempts will be made to post the manuscript online in a minimum time possible after it has been accepted for publication.

Aim and Scope
The journal "Frontiers in Bioscience" is a modern forum for scientific communication. Data and information that are useful to investigators in any discipline in biology and medicine including biochemistry, microbiology, parasitology, virology, immunology, biotechnology, and bioinformatics will be published after they have been peer reviewed. This will include reviews and research articles in basic science and clinical science, as well as technical notes and protocols. Other materials that have not been traditionally published as peer reviewed articles will also be considered for publication. This will include, rare images ,videos and sounds, and assimilated data in the form of a database on any subject in medicine and biology. The journal will include useful search strategies of internet and databases related to biology and medicine, links to medically relevant journals and the guidelines to authors of scientific journals and as well as information regarding manufacturers' products and links to manufacturers' homepages. Other items that will be posted are book reviews, as well as a list of conferences.
