Get credit for your data

Are you holding on to data that you've not yet published? You can get recognition for it by publishing a data note in BMC Research Notes.

We are recruiting new Associate Editors to join our international Editorial Board, helping to provide expertise on a wide range of subjects within the area of systems biology.

Call for papers: Systems Medicine

New Content Item BMC Systems Biology is delighted to announce the launch of a thematic series focused on highlighting original research on the emerging field of 'Systems Medicine', which will review and feature applied translational research on biological mechanisms, including the tailoring of diagnosis, prevention and treatment of disease via a multitude of methods.

Balomenos et al present BaSCA, a novel Bacterial image analysis driven single-cell analytics pipeline, which enables the high throughput analysis, down to the single-cell level, of complex time lapse cell movies with many colonies and potentially thousands of cells in the field of view. The results presented demonstrate its robustness and universality.
