Article/Paper Submission Guidelines
Use these instructions to prepare peer-review papers, technical articles, and other contributions for publication in BioPharm International and on www.BioPharmInternational.com.
Submission Process
Publishing is a deadline-focused business; the editors rely on the cooperation of contributors to meet deadlines and following the editorial review process.
The editorial process is summarized as follows:
• The editors begin work on topics on the editorial calendar approximately four months prior to the month of publication; early contact with the editors via email inquiry is recommended.
• Authors are asked to submit an abstract (250 words) describing the topic and content of the proposed submission, potential figures, expected length and submission date, and a list of authors. The editors review the abstract, offer suggestions, and provide a word count and deadline. Abstracts are due approximately three months prior to the month of publication.
• Final articles, figures, and signed license agreements are due approximately two months prior to publication. Please obtain all necessary legal and company clearances prior to submission.
• The typical word count for a technical article is 1800 to 2000 words, with up to three figures. The word count will be confirmed after review of the abstract.
• Articles are assigned to a lead editor, who will work with the corresponding author through the editing process. Authors will be sent an edited Word document, as well as a layout page proof. Authors must return the edited document and proofs within a few days.
The editors cannot guarantee publication of a submission in a specific issue. All submissions are reviewed and edited for style, content, and length. All peer-review papers are subject to advisory board review. Proofs of edited articles are sent to authors prior to publication.
