Where do I submit a Biology of the Cell 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 Biology of the Cell 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 Biology of the Cell and another journal at the same time?

No. Journals, Biology of the Cell 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 Biology of the Cell?

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 Biology of the Cell author guide for any required wording.

How do I know my paper fits Biology of the Cell?

Read the Biology of the Cell 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 Biology of the Cell manuscript readable without them.

How to Use the Biology of the Cell Template | A Step-by-Step Guide

Authored by Sumalatha Gangadhar | Published on 28 September, 2026

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

What is the Biology of the Cell Template?

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

What's actually in a Biology of the Cell submission:

A Biology of the Cell submission has a title page with authors and affiliations, an abstract of up to 300 words, keywords, the main text for your article type, declarations, the reference list, 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 300 words).
References that do not follow the stated style: APA 6th edition.
The wrong number or kind of keywords (5–7 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 Biology of the Cell Template include?
