General Information

From the Managing Editor, Professor Anthony Watts -

The European Biophysics Journal now invites submission full research articles and Biophysics Letters. Full articles should describe original and previously unpublished research in area covered in the "Aims and Scope", although consideration will be given to other relevant areas of biophysics.

Biophysics Letters should be shorter articles, which will be reviewed rapidly to ensure short publication times. The criteria for acceptance will be originality and scientific value. The text should include a short abstract, and the length should generally be no more than four Journal pages.

Suggestions for short (less than 20pp) contemporary (covering relevant work from predominantly the last 5 years) reviews should be addressed to one of the Editors.

Occasionally, Special Issues, covering specific topics either aaround a meeting or not, are published and can be edited by an invited guest editor(s). Suggestions for such Special Issues should be sent to one of the editors.

The abstracts from the bi-annual EBSA congresses are also published as a full issue of the Journal.

Please submit manuscripts or Biophysics Letters electronically to:

Ownership of the European Biophysics Journal -

As from the beginning of 1996, the European Biophysics Journal was operated under an agreement which provides for joint ownership between the publishers, Springer Verlag, Heidelberg, and the European Biophysical Societies' Association, EBSA. EBSA is represented by the EBSA Publication Committee with responsibility for management of the Journal, including negotiation with the publishers, and the appointment of Editorial personnel. The Publication Committee is composed of the Chairman and Treasurer of EBSA and the Managing Editor of the European Biophysics Journal. As from the beginning of 2000, the European Biophysics Journal is owned by EBSA and will continue to be published by Springer Verlag.

Aims and Scope

The European Biophysical Journal publishes papers in the field of biophysics, where "biophysics" is defined as the study of biological pehnomena using physical methods and concepts. Original Papers, Invited Reviews and Biophysics Letters are published. The primary goal of this Journal is to advance the understanding of biological structure and function by application of the principles of physical science, and by presenting the work in a biophysical context.

Papers employing a distinctively biophysical approach at all levels of biological organisation will be considered for publication, as will both experimental and theoretical studies. The criteria for acceptance are scientific content, originality and relevance to biological systems of current interest and importance.

Principle areas of interest include:

  • Structure and dynamics of biological macromolecules
  • Membrane biophysics and ion channels
  • Cell biophysics and organisation
  • Macromolecular assemblies
  • Biophysical methods and instrumentation
