WIREs

The award-winning WIREs (Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews) series combines some of the most powerful features of encyclopedic reference works and review journals in an innovative online format. They are designed to promote a cross-disciplinary research ethos while maintaining the highest scientific and presentational standards, but should be viewed first and foremost as evolving online databases of cutting-edge reviews.

Journal Aims and Scope

In identifying and understanding the perturbations and genetic mutations associated with the development and progression of disease, biomedical research elucidates cellular processes and advances more effective approaches to treatment. Mechanistic research into the complex pathways, interactions, genetics, environmental factors, and engineering affecting cells and tissues is invaluable for developing novel techniques, experimental strategies, and clinical interventions for both prophylaxis and therapeutics. WIREs Mechanisms of Disease has a strong interdisciplinary focus and serves as an encyclopedic reference for mechanistic biology and translational research. The articles discuss insights on research related to cancer, cardiovascular diseases, congenital diseases, immune system diseases, infectious diseases, metabolic diseases, neurological diseases, and reproductive system diseases. The topical coverage for each disease area of WIREs Mechanisms of Disease includes: genetics/genomics/epigenetics, molecular and cellular physiology, stem cells and development, environmental factors, biomedical engineering, and computational models.

Readership

Each WIREs title was established in response to the urgent need to publish current, comprehensive reviews of the pioneering research that is being done in an interdisciplinary and complementary set of fields. Our goal is to support the research and teaching needs of advanced students, scientists, healthcare providers, governmental and policy analysts, and other professionals in these rapidly developing areas.

Reviews are structured into different Article Categories, each with its own description and intended audience. All articles are tagged with Topics and Subtopics to facilitate browsing.

Additionally, Wiley participates in the Research4Life initiative, which provides people at more than 7,700 institutions in the developing world with free or low cost access to scientific content.
