Letters in Animal Biology

Aims & Scope

Letters in Animal Biology ( LIAB ) is an open access, peer-reviewed international journal that publishes the results of original research pertaining to animal biology. LIAB encompasses a broad range of topics on animal production, health, and welfare along with the fundamental aspects of genetics, physiology, nutrition, medicine, microbiology, biotechnology, biochemistry, reproduction, and animal products. Articles published in LIAB cover research topics on all domestic animals, birds, and companion animals; however, the topics on wildlife species, laboratory animals, and other aquatic species will be considered for publication as long as they have direct or indirect implications on animal production, health, or other biological aspects. LIAB publishes high quality research articles, reviews, short communications, and case reports.

A twelfth criterion — whether APC fees are clearly disclosed — is not scored here; it is left out of the total rather than counted as a failure. Publication charges appear in the metrics card above.
