GigaScience is an open access, open data, open peer-review journal focusing on ‘big data’ research from the life and biomedical sciences.

GigaScience aims to revolutionize publishing by promoting reproducibility of analyses and data dissemination, organization, understanding, and use. We publish ALL research objects (data, software tools and workflows) from 'big data' studies across the entire spectrum of life and biomedical sciences. These resources are managed using the FAIR Principles for scientific data management and stewardship that state that research data should be Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable.

Our scope covers not just 'omic' type data and the fields of high-throughput biology currently serviced by large public repositories, but also the growing range of more difficult-to-access data, such as imaging, neuroscience, ecology, cohort data, systems biology and other new types of large-scale shareable data.

Environment, sustainability: multidiscip.
Ecology: multidisciplinary
World health, public health, human health: multidiscip.
Biology: multidisciplinary
Genetics, biotech., mol. biol.: multidiscip.
Microbiology: multidiscip.
