To be appropriate for Stem Cell Biology and Research, articles need to be of outstanding quality, broad interest and special importance. Initial decisions are held by Editors-in-Chief and submitted manuscripts will undergo unbiased preliminary assessment for the suitability to the scope of the journals. This will be determined during peer review process and by the advice of a member of the editorial board or somebody of equivalent standing. There are no restrictions on the length of articles submitted, but authors are suggested to be concise in regard with the reader’s interest.
Although articles contain sound information, it should fall under the journal’s scope. Article will not be considered for publication even the importance is closely related. This will become apparent only after the peer review process. However, the authors may be offered publication in the most appropriate subject-specific HOAJ journals through Manuscript Transfer Policy.
