The ‘Genomic and Molecular Cardiology’ is an open-access International Journal for genetic, genomic and molecular clinical practice of cardiovascular medicine and surgery. The GMC journal publishes original research, meta analyses, critical reviews, case commentaries and updates on recent developments focusing on genetic and genomic aspects of wide ranging cardiovascular conditions. The journal particularly focuses on delineation of the rare clinical phenotypes, new genes and variants, genotype-phenotype correlations, basic and clinically applied molecular genetics, diagnostic next generation sequencing, clinical trials on new drugs and devices and new pharmaceutical and interventional therapeutic advances.
