Silence is an open access peer reviewed journal, which aims to feature research involving small RNA molecules, and submissions are invited describing novel insights into the biogenesis and activity of such molecules. Silence also encourages bioinformatic and computational methods articles describing results and protocols that are accessible to molecular biologists and geneticists.
