Biology Open

英文简介

Biology Open (BiO) is an online author-pays Open Access journal that publishes peer-reviewed original research in all areas of the biological and biomedical sciences. It is a requirement for consideration at BiO that the work addresses a clearly stated, non-trivial, biological hypothesis. Editors will also consider Methods & Techniques papers, papers on computational analysis, replication studies, and rigorous reports presenting negative results. It is published by The Company of Biologists, a not-for-profit publishing organisation dedicated to supporting and inspiring the biological community.BiO does not consider articles in pure physics, chemistry, engineering, earth sciences, clinical studies, surgical procedures, public health, and homeopathy, complementary or alternative medicine.Since its launch in 2011, BiO has published more than 1100 peer-reviewed papers that have been accepted on the basis that they are technically sound and their conclusions are supported by the data shown – rather than on the perceived importance of the findings. The scope of BiO reflects The Company of Biologists' acknowledged expertise in cell, developmental, experimental and translational biology, and reaches further to support research communities across all aspects of the biological and biomedical sciences. Authors are encouraged to submit their work directly to BiO for consideration by an international board of research-active academic Editors led by Editor-in-Chief Steven Kelly, and Deputy Editors Jack Hayes, Cathy Jackson and Yishi Jin.BiO also extends the service delivered by our sister journals – Development, Journal of Cell Science, Journal of Experimental Biology and Disease Models & Mechanisms. Papers rejected from these journals can be transferred to BiO, strictly with the authors' approval, via a simple one-click manuscript transfer option. We believe this helps the author community by providing a welcoming home for their papers and helping to avoid additional rounds of formatting, submission and review.

生物开放(BiO)是一个在线作者付费开放获取期刊，发表在生物和生物医学科学的所有领域的同行评审的原始研究。这是一个需要考虑的要求，在生物的工作，以明确阐述，非平凡，生物学的假设。编辑还将考虑方法和技术论文，关于计算分析的论文，复制研究，以及呈现负面结果的严谨报告。它是由生物学家公司出版的，这是一个非盈利的出版组织，致力于支持和激励生物群落。BiO不考虑纯物理、化学、工程、地球科学、临床研究、外科手术、公共卫生和顺势疗法、补充或替代医学的文章。自2011年推出以来，BiO已经发表了1100多篇同行评议的论文，这些论文之所以被接受，是因为它们在技术上是可靠的，而且它们的结论得到了数据的支持，而不是因为这些发现的重要性。BiO的范围反映了生物学家在细胞、发育、实验和转化生物学方面公认的专业知识，并进一步支持生物和生物医学科学各方面的研究团体。作者们被鼓励将他们的作品直接提交BiO，以供由主编史蒂文?凯利(Steven Kelly)、副主编杰克?海耶斯(Jack Hayes)、凯茜?杰克逊(Cathy Jackson)和金一石(Yishi Jin)领导的国际学术研究编辑委员会审议。BiO还扩展了我们的姐妹期刊《发展》、《细胞科学》、《实验生物学》和《疾病模型与机制》提供的服务。从这些期刊中被拒绝的论文可以通过一个简单的一键式的稿件转移选项，严格按照作者的批准，转移到BiO。我们相信，这有助于作者社区为他们的论文提供一个欢迎的家，并帮助避免额外的格式化、提交和审查。
