Il Prof. Stefano Ciurli, Ordinario di Chimica Generale ed Inorganica presso il Dipartimento FaBiT (https://www.unibo.it/sitoweb/stefano.ciurli), assumerà il ruolo di Editor-in-Chief della rivista scientifica Journal of Inorganic Biochemistry (https://www.sciencedirect.com/journal/journal-of-inorganic-biochemistry ), pubblicata da Elsevier, a partire dal 1 luglio 2022.
La rivista è attualmente classificata in Q1, con un impact factor = 4.155.
The Journal of Inorganic Biochemistry is an established international forum for research in all aspects of Biological Inorganic Chemistry. Original papers of a high scientific level are published in the form of Articles (full length papers), Short Communications, Focused Reviews and Bioinorganic Methods.
Topics include: the chemistry, structure and function of metalloenzymes; the interaction of inorganic ions and molecules with proteins and nucleic acids; the function of metal-containing systems in the regulation of gene expression; the role of metal-based compounds/constructs in medicine, including metal-based theranostics and multimodal imaging agents; the application of spectroscopic methods to determine the structure of metallobiomolecules; the preparation and characterization of metal-based biomaterials; the mechanisms of metals and metalloids toxicity; the chemistry of metals in the environment; the synthesis and properties of coordination complexes of biological interest including both structural and functional model systems.
The emphasis of the Journal is on the structure and mechanism of action of metallobiomolecules.
