Come see the latest Genetics books—and talk to the editors that published them. This is your chance—if you’re attending European Society of Human Genetics—to talk one-on-one with Springer Nature editors, to look through and buy new and essential books, and more.
When you visit Springer Nature in booth 544, you can talk to some of the most experienced editors working in scholarly publishing. These experts can answer any questions you might have and can explain the ins and outs of today’s publishing landscape, including open access (OA), what’s involved in writing and publishing a book, and more.
And you can see the full range of Genetics at Springer and Nature Portfolio here. On these pages, you’ll find more detailed information about the books, journals, and services you’ll see highlighted especially for European Society of Human Genetics.
Springer Nature’s leading imprints
Official journal of the European Society of Human Genetics
The European Journal of Human Genetics is the official journal of the European Society of Human Genetics, publishing high-quality, original research papers, short reports and reviews in the rapidly expanding field of human genetics and genomics. It covers molecular, clinical and cytogenetics, interfacing between advanced biomedical research and the clinician, and bridging the great diversity of facilities, resources and viewpoints in the genetics community.
EJHG
Journal of Community Genetics
The Journal of Community Genetics is an international focal point for research in the ever-expanding field of community genetics, the art and science of applying medical genetics to human communities for the benefit of their individuals. The multidisciplinary coverage includes medical genetics, epidemiology, genetics in primary care, public health aspects of genetics, and ethical, legal, social, and economic issues. The journal serves as a forum for community genetics worldwide, with a focus on low- and middle-income countries. The journal presents original research papers, reviews, short communications, case and country reports, commentaries, news, and correspondence.

Contribute to our book series Epigenetics and Human Health
The pioneering book series Epigenetics and Human Health evokes novel research questions and how these are linked to human health. Each of its volumes covers a particular topic that is important to clinical practice and research, and to researchers in epigenetics who study the relevant medical issues of today. The individual books of the series complement each other and underline the importance of epigenetics in health-related disciplines such as toxicology, reproduction, psychiatry, and nutritional and environmental medicine.

Get answers from expert editors—here’s who you will meet at our booth
You’re attending European Society of Human Genetics because you have results to share. But what’s the best way to reach the widest appropriate audience? The Springer Nature editors who are here can help answer that question. You can take the opportunity to meet with Tanja, Lorena and Andrea. If you haven’t written a book before, they can give you a quick introduction to the process. And if you have, they can show you how publishing a book with Springer and Nature Portfolio would be different from other publishers. They can also help answer any questions you might have about Springer and Nature Portfolio journals.

Open access
Serving the global research community with openness, rigor, quality, and transparency
Open access (OA) refers to the free, immediate, online availability of research outputs such as journal articles or books, combined with the rights to use these outputs fully in the digital environment. Publishing OA expands the reach of your research, fostering greater impact, visibility and usage of your work. Studies indicate that gold OA articles achieve significantly more downloads, citations, and Altmetric attention than non-OA articles.
You may be able to publish OA, with your fees covered, through one of Springer Nature’s many OA agreements. Alternatively, you can use our free OA funding and support service to find and apply for funding to cover your article processing charges (APCs) and/or book processing charges (BPCs).
Ultimately, serving the research community means research that’s open to all. And the only way to achieve full, immediate, and sustainable OA is by prioritising gold OA.
Below you’ll find a selection of OA books that our editors have chosen as of particular interest for European Society of Human Genetics.
