Guide for Authors
Articles for TiBS are generally invited, but ideas for Reviews and, in particular, Opinion features are welcome. Prospective authors should
send a brief summary (400 words), citing key references, to the Editor by e-mail. Guidelines on manuscript preparation will be forwarded
if the proposal is accepted. The submission of completed articles without prior consultation is strongly discouraged. As much of the
journal content is planned in advance, such manuscripts may be rejected primarily because of lack of space.Authors should note that all
articles for TiBS are peer reviewed before acceptance and publication cannot be guaranteed.
As the leading review journal in biochemistry
and molecular biology, TiBS enables researchers, teachers and their students to keep up with new and recent developments across this
broad field.
Reviews form the foundation of each monthly issue. These articles, invited from leading researchers in a specific
field, summarize and assess recent and important developments. A subset are the Historical Review articles which provide an historical
account (often personal) of a particular field.
Research Focus are short articles that highlight recent research papers from
the primary literature. The authors focus on the importance of the new papers, briefly setting them in context and explaining their significance
for a wide audience.
Opinion articles present a personal viewpoint of a field or research-related subject. They can cover timely
controversial topics or debates, provide a new interpretation of an old probelm, or current issue, or speculate in depth on the implications
of some recently published research or data, Opinion articles aim to stimulate debate rather than provide a comprehensive review of a
topic.
Proposals for articles should be sent to:
