Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is dedicated to celebration of the 10th anniversary of Metabolites (ISSN 2218-1989). To commemorate this milestone, we are requesting submission of reviews of the field and research papers that are "pushing the boundaries of metabolomics and lipidomics". The scope of these manuscripts should fall within the range of the mission of the journal, but is not limited to any particular themes: https://www.mdpi.com/journal/metabolites/about.
Metabolites (ISSN 2218-1989) is an open-access journal of metabolism and metabolomics, supported by an outstanding Editorial Board composed of high-profile researchers. It just received its First Impact Factor of 3.303, and is indexed by the Science Citation Index Expanded (Web of Science), PubMed Central, Scopus (CiteScore in 2018: 3.75), and other important databases. In addition, the Metabolomics Society (MetSoc) is now an affiliated society member of Metabolites.
We look forward to your contribution. Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions.
Prof. Dr. Peter Meikle
