Call for Proposals
American Journal of Physiology - Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative
Physiology
The editors of AJP: Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology
are soliciting this Call for Proposals for Review Articles in Integrative
Physiology. Reviews provide synthesis of state-of-the-art knowledge in a
defined area highlighting new questions and pointing to future research
directions. They encompass examination of biological processes, systems, and
models, and technologies for their study. The primary purpose is to educate
readers by providing a comprehensive view of completed works presented in a
concise, unified format; however, appropriate inclusion of unpublished data
is permissible. Utilization of figures is encouraged. All reviews, invited
or otherwise are invited and are all peer-reviewed.
We are requesting presubmission inquiries and a letter of intent.
Interested individuals should include (in a single PDF file): 1) a
tentative title and abstract outlining the review and its significance, 2)
citations of previous reviews on the same topic, 3) a list of
publications from the past 5 years by the senior author, 4) a short
list of potential peer reviewers, and 5) a brief letter of intent
indicating your expertise, names of coauthors, and potential submission
deadline. The due date for inquiries is the 1st day of each month with the
call terminating on December 1, 2008.
E-mail material (in a single PDF file) to
ajp-regulatory@uiowa.edu. The editors of the journal will review each
proposal and the most meritorious will be invited to submit a Review
Article. Those chosen will be deemed to be highly significant, timely, and
of broad interest to the readers of the journal. All submissions will be
rigorously peer reviewed, and, therefore, an invitation to submit is not a
guarantee of publication.
