Disease Models & Mechanisms (DMM) is an Open Access biomedical research journal focusing on the use of model systems to better understand, diagnose and treat human disease.
The primary aim of DMM is to promote human health by inspiring collaboration between basic and clinical researchers in translational science. The journal is committed to presenting rigorously peer-reviewed research that has significant translational impact. The interdisciplinary nature of DMM means that a diverse range of diseases, approaches and models fall within its broad scope. DMM is guided by an international team of expert research-active Editors, led by Monica Justice and Ross Cagan, and supported by an outstanding Editorial Advisory Board.
Editor's choice
Paul Huang and colleagues describe MouseRefSWATH, a reference spectral library for SWATH-mass spectrometry proteomic analyses of human xenografts.
We also highlight a novel zebrafish model to investigate Toxoplasma gondii replication in vivo, developed by the Mostowy group.
Recent highlights
A new Review by Santoso and McCain discusses bioengineered models of the neuromuscular junction for 'on chip' modelling of neuromuscular diseases.
Also in this issue, Cédric Maurange summarises temporal patterning in neural progenitors, linking insight from Drosophila to childhood cancers.
