Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications (BBRC) is the premier international journal devoted to the very rapid dissemination of timely and significant experimental results in diverse fields of biological research. For short communication papers, we offer the fastest submission to acceptance of any journal within life sciences, with "accept" decisions rendered within three weeks of submission. We also consider full-length research papers and review articles.

The journal covers most of areas of life science:

• Biochemistry

• Biophysics

• Cell biology

• Cellular pathology and cancer

• Computational biology and bioinformatics

• Genetics

• Immunology and inflammation

• Microbiology and virology

• Nanomedicine and bionanomaterials

• Neuroscience

• Pharmacology

• Physiology

• Plant Biology

• Structural biology

BBRC does not typically publish clinical reports or studies primarily focused on associations in patient samples or treatment and observation of human subjects. Theoretical studies or studies based on pure and applied mathematics are considered out of scope.

BBRC’s expectations for research using natural products, in particular studies on compounds or mixtures of compounds (e.g., herbal extracts), are that evidence demonstrating similar activity of purified component(s) of that extract must be provided and that the percentage of purity must be stated (as per guidance provided in https://bpspubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/bph.15256).

Please see our Guide for Authors for information on article submission. If you require any further information or help, please visit our Support Center.

Announcement: BBRC has traditionally only published short communications of novel results. From 2023, the journal publishes short communications, full-length research papers, and reviews.
