About this Research Topic
Frontiers has organized a series of Research Topics to highlight the latest advancements in research across the field of Genetics, with articles from the members of our accomplished Editorial Boards and the broader research community. This editorial initiative is led by Prof. Erica Davis and Dr. Jordi Pérez-Tur, our Specialty Chief Editors of the Genetics of Common and Rare Diseases section together with Dr. Mara Marongiu, focused on the leading edge of the field and future paradigms to tackle current challenges pertaining to common and rare genetic diseases. The Research Topic solicits brief, forward-looking contributions from the editorial board members and the broader research community that describe the state-of-the-art, outlining recent developments and major accomplishments that have been achieved and that need to occur to move the field forward.
This article collection will inspire, inform and provide direction and guidance to researchers in the field. In line with this objective, we will accept the following manuscript types: Original Research, Review (either Reviews, Systematic Reviews, Mini Reviews or Policy and Practice Reviews), Hypothesis and Theory, Perspective, Policy Brief and Opinion.
