Briefings in Functional Genomics is an international forum reviewing the use, development and exploitation of functional genomic approaches in all areas of biological research. The journal provides a centralised resource for researchers in the field of functional genomics as well as guidance to scientists new to the area.Subjects covered by BFG include but are not restricted to: the identification and functional characterisation of coding and non-coding features in genomes, microarray technologies, gene expression profiling, next generation sequencing, pharmacogenomics, phenomics, SNP technologies, transgenic systems, mutation screens and genotyping. Articles range in scope and depth from the introductory level to specific details of protocols and analyses, encompassing bacterial, fungal, plant, animal and human data.

功能基因組學(xué)簡介是一個國際論壇，回顧功能基因組學(xué)方法在生物研究所有領(lǐng)域的使用、發(fā)展和開發(fā)。該雜志為功能基因組學(xué)領(lǐng)域的研究人員提供了集中的資源，并為該領(lǐng)域的新科學(xué)家提供了指導(dǎo)。BFG涵蓋的主題包括但不限于:基因組編碼和非編碼特征的識別和功能表征、微陣列技術(shù)、基因表達譜、下一代測序、藥物基因組學(xué)、苯組學(xué)、SNP技術(shù)、轉(zhuǎn)基因系統(tǒng)、突變篩選和基因分型。文章的范圍和深度從入門級到協(xié)議和分析的具體細節(jié)，包括細菌、真菌、植物、動物和人類數(shù)據(jù)。
