Aims & scope

Biological Procedures Online is an open access, peer-reviewed journal which publishes articles that improve access to techniques and methods in the medical and biological sciences.

We are also interested in short but important research discoveries, such as new animal disease models.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

Reports of new research techniques and applications of existing techniques
Technical analyses of research techniques and published reports
Validity analyses of research methods and approaches to judging the validity of research reports
Application of common research methods
Reviews of existing techniques
Novel/important product information

Biological Procedures Online places emphasis on multidisciplinary approaches that integrate methodologies from medicine, biology, chemistry, imaging, engineering, bioinformatics, computer science, and systems analysis.

The journal welcomes manuscripts from innovators who have overcome technical challenges or developed new methods.

Biological Procedures Online has been publishing for over 12 years and has a 5-Year Impact Factor of 2.0.
