BMC Systems Biology was an open access peer-reviewed scientific journal that covered research in systems biology. Filling a gap in what was a new research field, the journal was established in 2007 and is published by BioMed Central.[1] Part of the BMC Series of journals, it had a broad scope covering the engineering of biological systems, network modelling, quantitative analyses, integration of different levels of information and synthetic biology.[2]
In January 2019, the Editorial Board was informed that the journal was closing and no more submissions would be accepted after March 1.[3] The last articles were published on 5 April 2019, but content is still archived in perpetuity from the homepage and PubMed Central.[citation needed]
