Where do I submit a Bioengineering manuscript?

Through the journal's own submission system. The address is in the Submission row of the Structure at a Glance table on this page. SciSpace does not submit for you.

How do I use the Bioengineering template in SciSpace?

Click Start Writing, add your topic and article type to the prompt, review the draft against the rules on this page, then export and submit through the journal's portal.

Can I submit to Bioengineering and another journal at the same time?

No. Journals, Bioengineering included, expect a manuscript to be under review at one journal at a time. Wait for the decision or withdraw formally before you submit elsewhere.

What should my data availability statement say for Bioengineering?

Say where readers can find the data behind your results: a repository with a DOI, supplementary files, or the reason the data cannot be shared. Check the Bioengineering author guide for any required wording.

How do I know my paper fits Bioengineering?

Read the Bioengineering aims and scope and skim two or three recent articles. If your question, methods, and audience match what the journal publishes, you are in the right place.

What belongs in supplementary material?

Large datasets, extended tables, extra figures, code, and detailed protocols. Reference each file in the main text, and keep the core Bioengineering manuscript readable without them.

Can I change the author list after submitting?

Usually only with the editor's approval and written agreement from every author. Settle who qualifies as an author, and the order, before you submit.

How to Use the Bioengineering Template | A Step-by-Step Guide

Authored by Sumalatha Gangadhar | Published on 28 September, 2026

Use this Bioengineering template when the manuscript has to match that journal before you upload it.

What is the Bioengineering Template?

It is the writing shell for Bioengineering: title and authors, the abstract, the body, declarations, figures, and the reference list.

What's actually in a Bioengineering submission:

A Bioengineering submission has a title page with authors and affiliations, an abstract of up to 200 words, keywords, the main text for your article type, declarations, the reference list in MDPI (numbered) style, and figures and tables.

What separates a clean submission from one that gets kicked back:

An abstract that breaks the rule (an abstract of up to 200 words).
References that are not in MDPI (numbered) style.
The wrong number or kind of keywords (3–10 keywords).
A missing declaration: ethics approval, competing interests, funding, or data availability.

Open the journal's current author guide before you upload.

What does this Bioengineering Template include?

The sections a Bioengineering submission is built from, in order: title page, abstract, keywords, main text, declarations, references, figures, and tables. It does not replace the journal's own checklist. The journal also publishes its own Word file: official Bioengineering Word file.

Steps to Use This Template with SciSpace Agent

Click Start Writing on this page.
Keep the Bioengineering section order. Add your topic and article type in the prompt.
Run the prompt and read the draft against the abstract and reference rules on this page.

Bioengineering Author Guidelines in Detail

These rules come from the Bioengineering author instructions. Journals change limits without notice, so check the current guide before you upload.

Abstract

No more than 200 words.

Keywords

3–10 keywords.

References

ACS reference style.

Bioengineering Reference Style with Examples

Reference managers format Bioengineering citations with the Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute reference style, with numbered citations in the text. Zotero and Mendeley list it as "Bioengineering" in the open Citation Style Language database.

In-text citation: [1] for a two-author article, [2] for a single-author book.

Reference list entries:

Journal article: 1. Smith, J.A.; Patel, R. Seasonal Variation in Soil Microbial Activity. Journal of Field Studies 2021, 12, 145–159.
Book: 2. Garcia, L. Methods in Applied Research; 2nd ed.; Academic Press: London, 2019.

These examples show the pattern, not real sources. If the author guide gives a different rule for DOIs or for how many authors to list before et al., follow the guide.

Quick Tips for Using the Bioengineering Template

Set Zotero or Mendeley to the "Bioengineering" style before you add the first citation.
Write the abstract last and count it. Bioengineering asks for an abstract of up to 200 words.
Choose keywords to the rule: 3–10 keywords.
Keep declarations with the manuscript, not in a separate note you might forget to upload.

Best Practices

Open the author guide once before you draft and once before you upload. Match a recent Bioengineering paper for depth, headings, and figure style.

Before You Submit: Final Check

The abstract meets the rule (an abstract of up to 200 words).
Every reference is in MDPI (numbered) style, and every in-text citation has a matching entry.
The keywords follow the stated count.
Declarations are included: ethics, competing interests, funding, and data availability.
Figures are publication-ready and cited in order.

Then submit on the journal's portal, not from this page.
