Journal Guide

Biorheology is an international interdisciplinary journal that publishes research on the deformation and flow properties of biological systems or materials. It is the aim of the editors and publishers of Biorheology to bring together contributions from those working in various fields of biorheological research from all over the world. Members of the editorial board and the advisory board work in different areas of biorheology in several countries where appreciable research activity in this field is being carried out.The aim of biorheological research is to determine and characterize the dynamics of physiological processes at all levels of organization. Manuscripts should report original theoretical and/or experimental research promoting the scientific and technological advances in a broad field that ranges from the rheology of macromolecules and macromolecular arrays to cell, tissue and organ rheology. In all these areas, the interrelationships of rheological properties of the systems or materials investigated and their structural and functional aspects are stressed.The scope of papers solicited by Biorheology extends to systems at different levels of organization that have never been studied before, or, if studied previously, have either never been analyzed in terms of their rheological properties or have not been studied from the point of view of the rheological matching between their structural and functional properties. This biorheological approach applies in particular to molecular studies where changes of physical properties and conformation are investigated without reference to how the process actually takes place, how the forces generated are matched to the properties of the structures and environment concerned, proper time scales, or what structures or strength of structures are required.Biorheology invites papers in which such 'molecular biorheological' aspects, whether in animal or plant systems, are examined and discussed. While we emphasize the biorheology of physiological function in organs and systems, the biorheology of disease is of equal interest. Biorheological analyses of pathological processes and their clinical implications are encouraged, including basic clinical research on hemodynamics and hemorheology.

Biosafety and Health is an open access, peer-reviewed journal sponsored by the Chinese Medical Association, managed by National Institute for Viral Disease Control and Prevention, Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention (China CDC). This journal aims to publish original research findings and thoughts in any aspect connected with public health and biosafety. Topics include but are not limited to:

• Identification and characterization of biological threats;
• Origin, transmission, and evolution of biological agents;
• Surveillance, risk assessment, and early-warning;
• Prevention, diagnosis, and therapeutics;
• Synthetic biotechnology, genome editing, and other new biotechniques;
• Policies and standards.

Biosafety and Health is published quarterly in English language. Article types include Original Research, Reviews, Perspectives, Correspondence, Case Report, News and Views, Highlights, Comments and policy forum, etc.

Bioscience Horizons is a free online journal publishing the best undergraduate bioscience research from the UK and Republic of Ireland. The journal provides a forum for students, their supervisors and universities, to showcase high quality undergraduate research work, strengthening the link between teaching and research in higher education. All papers are written by students and can come from a variety of research projects. Manuscripts can be submitted at any time of the year on a continuous publication basis.

Bioscience Nanotechnology focuses on applications of nanoscience and nanotechnology to the broad realm of biological sciences, with particular emphasis on microbiology, synthetic biology, plant and animal sciences, environmental sciences, and agriculture. A key aim of the journal is to promote the visibility and reach of innovative articles exploring new pathways in underrepresented areas in biology, and pushing the boundaries of research and technology in those spaces.

Bioscience Reports provides a home for sound scientific research in all areas of cell biology and molecular life sciences.

We welcome papers that span disciplines, including papers that focus on the following:

The physical properties and structure of basic molecules that make up living organisms
Pathways, chains of reactions and interactions between molecules in living processes
Genetic processes
Biological networks
The components, processes, and interactions of cells
Developmental and evolutionary processes in cells
Organisms
Physiological systems and clinical/medical science
Technology

The journal Biosemiotics provides a platform for exceptional peer-reviewed papers that is as broad as the rapidly growing discipline for which it is named. Its coverage spans a range of disciplines, bridging biology, philosophy, linguistics and the communication sciences. Conceived in the insight that the genetic code is a language as old as life itself, and grounded in the study of signs, of communication and of information in organisms, biosemiotics is evolving today toward the challenge of naturalizing not only biological information but also biological meaning, in the belief that signs and codes are fundamental components of the living world. Biosemiotics offers an advanced forum for the exchange of ideas on this exciting new area of biological theory. It serves a readership comprising biosemioticians themselves, along with interested researchers in disciplines from social semiotics to community ecology, from communication science to artificial intelligence.

Brain Sciences (ISSN 2076-3425) is a peer-reviewed scientific journal that publishes original articles, critical reviews, research notes and short communications in the areas of cognitive neuroscience, developmental neuroscience, molecular and cellular neuroscience, neural engineering, neuroimaging, neurolinguistics, neuropathy, systems neuroscience, and theoretical and computational neuroscience. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Electronic files or software regarding the full details of the calculation and experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary material., Buildings is an international, peer-reviewed, open access journal (free for readers) that publishes original articles, critical reviews, research notes, and short communications on building science, building engineering and architecture design. There is no restriction on the length of the papers as we encourage researchers to publish their innovative ideas and results in as much detail as possible. Additionally, we encourage authors to publish related electronic files or software along with their publication as “Supplementary Material”. To guarantee a rapid refereeing and editorial process, Buildings follows standard publication practices in the natural sciences.
