The Journal of Community Genetics serves as an international forum dedicated to the expanding field of community genetics, aiming to apply medical genetics to human communities for the benefit of individuals. The essence of community genetics lies in identifying individuals at increased genetic risk and assisting them in assessing this risk, enabling informed decision-making. Community genetics services encompass genetic screening, population genetic status registries, routine preconception and prenatal genetic counseling, public education on genetic issues, and ethical discussions related to genetics. This journal has a multidisciplinary scope, covering medical genetics, epidemiology, genetics in primary care, public health genetics, as well as ethical, legal, social, and economic issues. Its goal is to serve as a global platform for community genetics, with a particular focus on low- and middle-income countries. The journal features original research articles, reviews, brief communications, project reports, news, and announcements. Project reports describe illustrative projects in the field of community genetics, such as the design and progress of educational programs or the protocols and achievements of biobanks. Please note that case reports describing individual patients are not accepted.

Journal Citation Format

Those examples are references to articles in scholarly journals and how they are supposed to appear in your bibliography.

Not all journals organize their published articles in volumes and issues, so these fields are optional. Some electronic journals do not provide a page range, but instead list an article identifier. In a case like this it's safe to use the article identifier instead of the page range.

A journal article with 1 author

A journal article with 2 authors

A journal article with 3 authors

A journal article with 5 or more authors
