Archives of Biological Sciences: Announcements

<p>The <em>Archives of Biological Sciences</em> is published quarterly in an open-access electronic format. The journal uses open-source software for the management of peer-reviewed academic journals, the <em>Open Journal System</em> created by the Public Knowledge Project and released under the GNU General Public License. Instructions for the submission using OJS are available on the following link <a href="https://openjournalsystems.com/ojs-3-user-guide/submitting-an-article/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://openjournalsystems.com/ojs-3-user-guide/submitting-an-article/</a><br /><br /><strong>Submitted manuscripts should be full-length original research articles, </strong>excluding technical reports and short publications such as communications, comments, notes, data in brief (data articles), and case reports.<br />The <em>Archives of Biological Sciences</em> is a multidisciplinary journal that covers original research in subjects in life science, including biology, ecology, human biology, and biomedical research. The journal features research articles in genetics, botany, zoology, the ecology of higher and lower terrestrial and aquatic plants and animals, prokaryote biology, algology, mycology, entomology, biological systematics, evolution, biochemistry, molecular and cell biology, including all aspects of normal cell functioning, from embryonic to differentiated tissues and in different pathological states, molecular physiology, chronobiology, thermal biology, cryobiology, radiobiology, neurobiology, immunology, human biology, including the molecular basis of specific human pathologies, genotyping of disease, disease management.<br /><strong>Unsolicited scientific review articles<br /></strong>A review article should critically examine published literature in a specific field as an authoritative research analysis. It should organize, evaluate, and identify patterns and trends, synthesize the literature, identify research gaps, and recommend new research areas.<br /><br /><strong>*</strong><br /><strong>Subjects that are not considered by the journal </strong>include articles on<em> in silico</em> biology that are not supported by laboratory experiments. The journal requires that research be grounded in empirical data and that experimental findings be rigorously tested and reproducible. While <em>in silico</em> studies can be a valuable tool for generating hypotheses and testing theoretical models, they are preliminary to experimental research, rather than a substitute for it. The journal requires some experimental validation or corroboration of the <em>in silico</em> results.<br />Subjects that fall under life sciences but that do not contain sufficient interest for the journal include topics in food technology, oral medicine, veterinary science, agronomy, field research in agriculture, forestry, silviculture, soil science, descriptions of technological processes, experimental methods and solutions, instrumentation, technical reports containing chemical characterizations with no research into a biological explanatory mechanism, patient case studies, short faunistic or floristic notes, checklists of limited geographical areas (e.g. a country), description of a single new species in a genus that already contains many, articles describing new species on a single specimen.</p>en-USIssue 76(3) presents an array of research topics
