The year ending December 2013 marked Genome Biology and Evolution’s fifth year of operation. It was another strong year and we are pleased to say that the journal is meeting or exceeding all expectations that we set when the Society for Molecular Biology and Evolution (SMBE) embarked upon the endeavor to establish GBE. GBE was the first society-owned open access, online-only journal. Several other academic societies have followed suit, and open access, online-only publishing continues to be a popular model among researchers in our field. SMBE is an academic society devoted to furthering the undestanding of the evolutionary process as it is recorded in the sequences of genes and genomes. GBE was designed to provide a service to evolutionary biologists by publishing leading scientific contributions in the field of genome evolution and, by virtue of the vast molecular evolutionary expertise that is concentrated in SMBE, setting academic standards in genome evolutionary investigations. GBE has achieved that goal in its first few years and the future for the field and the journal remains bright.
