Journal Guide

Cell and Tissue Banking provides a forum for disseminating information to scientists and clinicians involved in the banking and transplantation of cells and tissues. Cell and Tissue Banking is an international, peer-reviewed journal that publishes original papers in such areas as quality assurance and control of banked cells and tissues; preservation and sterilization methods; clinical applications of banked cells and tissues; standards of practice in procurement, processing, storage and distribution; and ethical and medico-legal issues. Research is presented in the form of full-length papers describing original work; short communications for rapid publication; and mini- and full-length reviews of topical issues.

Cell and Tissue Research presents regular articles and reviews in the areas of molecular, cell, and supracellular biology. In particular, the journal provides a forum for publishing data that analyze the supracellular, integrative actions of gene products and their impact on the formation of tissue structure and function. Articles emphasize structure-function relationships as revealed by recombinant molecular technologies. Areas of research with a long-standing tradition of publishing in Cell & Tissue Research include: neurobiology, neuroendocrinology, endocrinology, reproductive biology, skeletal and immune systems, and development.

Cells Tissues Organs aims at bridging the gap between cell biology and developmental biology and the emerging fields of regenerative medicine (stem cell biology, tissue engineering, artificial organs, in vitro systems, and transplantation biology). Cells Tissues Organs offers a rapid and fair peer review and exquisite reproduction quality. Special topic issues, entire issues of the journal devoted to a single research topic within the range of interests of the journal, are published at irregular intervals.

Cellular & Molecular Immunology is a bimonthly journal from the Chinese Society of Immunology and the University of Science and Technology of China. Covering both basic immunology research and clinical applications, Cellular & Molecular Immunology provides the latest information and advancements in our understanding of the immunological response of the host, both in vitro and in vivo.The journal publishes Research Articles, Reviews, Minireviews and Brief Reports in all areas of cellular and molecular immunology, including but not limited to: * clinical immunology * comparative immunology * immunobiology * immunogenetics * immunological techniques * immunopathology * immunopharmacology * infection immunology * neuroimmunology * transplantation immunology * tumor immunology * veterinary immunologyAs China's first English-language immunology journal, Cellular & Molecular Immunology is designed to serve both the Chinese and international communities as a vehicle to rapidly disseminate the latest studies in this field. The journal welcomes submissions that explore novel ideas or un- or contra-orthodox approaches, as long as they are underpinned by conventional scientific practice and present falsifiable hypotheses that are tested with empirical methods and evidence.Manuscripts must provide evidence that can be critically evaluated, and where applicable: * define disorders and clinical symptoms by standard clinical terms (e.g. allergy, asthma, lupus, etc.) * deem results 'significant' only using standard statistical methods in biological effects/outcomes studies * use consistent and defined amounts and mixtures of herbal formulas, or use purified monomer extracts.Terms that may be ambiguous to the broad audience of the journal should be clearly defined within the manuscript.

Cellular Oncology publishes scientific contributions from various biomedical and clinical disciplines involved in basic and translational cancer research on the cell and tissue level, technical and bioinformatics developments in this area, and clinical applications. This includes a variety of fields like genome technology, micro-arrays and other high-throughput techniques, genomic instability, SNP, DNA methylation, signaling pathways, DNA organization, (sub)microscopic imaging, proteomics, bioinformatics, functional effects of genomics, drug design and development, molecular diagnostics and targeted cancer therapies, genotype-phenotype interactions. A major goal is to translate the latest developments in these fields from the research laboratory into routine patient management. To this end Cellular Oncology will form a platform of scientific information exchange between molecular biologists and geneticists, technical developers, pathologists, (medical) oncologist and other clinicians involved in the managemen

Papers, submitted to this journal, having neither been submitted, accepted nor published previously or simultaneously in other journals or books, may be accepted.It should be noted that all papers have to be transmitted, either to the Editor-in-Chief, to the Associate Editors or to the Co-Editors, who can all, without exception, handle the totality of the procedures, leading to the evaluation of the papers. After revision and acceptance of the paper, it is transmitted to the Editor-in-Chief who decides finally about its definitive acceptability. No any claim can be made by the author(s) concerning an eventual rejection of the paper. They can neither oblige any of the Editors and the Editor-in-Chief to disclose the name(s) and the number of the Referees, nor to give a detailed account about the content of the comments of the Referees.

In an effort to distribute its content to the widest audience possible, CMGH is an open access, all-digital journal. We will maximize our digital platform by including graphical abstracts, animated illustrations, large data sets, and video microscopy, endoscopy, and whole animal imaging approaches. Initially, CMGH will be a bi-monthly publication, moving to a monthly publication in its second year. CMGH will debut its first issue in January 2015. Our editors will rapidly and fairly review submissions with the assistance of an expert editorial board and external reviews. Following rigorous peer review, accepted manuscripts will be published online within days of the final decision.

CMGH is led by Jerrold R. Turner, MD, PhD, AGAF (The University of Chicago) and Associate Editors James R. Goldenring, MD, PhD, AGAF (Vanderbilt University School of Medicine) and Rebecca G. Wells, MD (University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine). For more information about their experience and areas of research, read their biosketches on the http://cmghjournal.org/content/board-of-editors-biosBoard of Editors page.

Drs. Turner, Goldenring, and Wells will also draw from the vast experience of their advisory committee, which is composed of AGA president and past editor-in-chief of Gastroenterology Anil K. Rustgi, MD, AGAF, AGA past-president Mark Donowitz, MD, AGAF, AGA vice president and past editor-in-chief of Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Michael Camilleri, MD, AGAF, current editor-in-chief of Gastroenterology, Bishr Omary, PhD, MD, AASLD past president James Boyer, MD, and accomplished investigator and Outstanding AGA Women in Science inductee Susan Henning, PhD, AGAF.

CMGH is open for submissions on June 1, 2014. Submit your manuscript at www.editorialmanager.com/cmghwww.editorialmanager.com/cmgh.

Cellular and Molecular Neurobiology publishes original research concerned with the analysis of neuronal and brain function at the cellular and subcellular levels. The journal offers timely, peer-reviewed articles that describe anatomic, genetic, physiologic, pharmacologic, and biochemical approaches to the study of neuronal function and the analysis of elementary mechanisms. Studies are presented on isolated mammalian tissues and intact animals, with investigations aimed at the molecular mechanisms or neuronal responses at the level of single cells. Cellular and Molecular Neurobiology also presents studies of the effects of neurons on other organ systems, such as analysis of the electrical or biochemical response to neurotransmitters or neurohormones on smooth muscle or gland cells.
