《基因与营养》是一本国际性、跨学科、同行评议的杂志，旨在研究遗传学与营养之间的关系，其最终目标是改善人类健康。该期刊发表原创研究文章和两种类型的评论文章。首先，回顾临床前研究数据，主要来自动物、细胞培养和其他实验模型。这些数据将为未来的产品开发和/或人类研究活动提供基础。其次，对人体实验数据进行批判性评估，以帮助交付具有医学证明用途的产品。这本杂志也是营养学家、医疗保健提供者和所有对预防医学感兴趣的人的论坛。以下是《日刊》可能涉及的具体领域的例子。?研究个体基因差异对饮食成分的反应。?基于营养基因组数据，为个人或人群的亚群体开发安全有效的饮食疗法。?通过定义特定的患者亚群，从饮食模式中确定饮食发展和健康结果。?基于对基因组理解的疾病机制模型的开发。?对物理和遗传连锁图谱的研究，结合技术对大量的遗传信息数据库进行编目，以发现可能与饮食相互作用从而影响疾病的基因。?饮食和营养与癌症遗传易感性的相互作用?冠心病中的基因-饮食相互作用
Genes & Nutrition is an international, interdisciplinary, peer-review journal for research on the relationship between genetics and nutrition, with the ultimate goal of improving human health. The journal publishes original research articles and two types of review articles. First, reviews of preclinical research data coming largely from animal, cell culture and other experimental models. Such data will provide the basis for future product development and/or human research initiatives. Secondly, critical evaluations of human experimental data to help deliver products with medically proven use.This journal also serves as a forum for nutritionists, healthcare providers and all those interested in preventive medicine. The following are examples of the specific areas that may be covered by the journal.? The study of individual genetic differences in response to dietary components.? The development of safe and effective diet therapies for individuals or subgroups of the population on the basis of nutrigenomic data.? Diet development and health outcomes from dietary patterns by defining specific sub-populations of patients.? The development of models of disease mechanism based on understanding the genome. ? The study of physical and genetic linkage maps combined with techniques to catalog massive databases of genetic information, to uncover genes that may interact with diet to influence disease.? Interactions of diet and nutrition with genetic susceptibility to cancer? Gene–diet interactions in coronary heart disease
