BioFactors

BioFactors publishes research identifying new substances known as biofactors and their functions at the biophysical, biochemical, cellular, and human level. Its scope includes biotechnology, synthetic biology, and enzyme engineering applied to nutrition and agri-food, plant biology, aging-related diseases, environmental sciences, and sustainability, and it also considers analytical and AI-driven modelling approaches supported by experimental data. Submissions dealing exclusively with the molecular mechanisms of cancer are considered more appropriate for oncology-focused journals.
