Instructions to Authors
http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/hum
Please read all the instructions to authors before submitting.
To help defray the cost of printing, the Publisher requests that page charges of $75 per printed page be paid by all authors who have funds available from research grants or from their institutions. It should be noted that ability to pay page charges is not a prerequisite for publication in the Journal.
Manuscript Submission and Copyright Agreement Form
The Copyright Agreement form (available from web site at transfer_of_copyright.pdf) should be submitted once your paper has been accepted for publication. Manuscripts cannot be published without this form. The corresponding author is responsible for obtaining signatures of coauthors. Authors not permitted to release copyright must still return the form signed under the statement of the reason for not releasing the copyright. Upon acceptance of your paper, please fax the Copyright Agreement form to 215-494-5443.
Papers must be submitted via upload in a word processing format, preferably in Microsoft Word. Please do not include artwork within the text document. Figures and tables should be supplied in separate files, be labeled clearly, and should be in TIFF or EPS formats. Please see the Tables and Illustrations section for further details on art submission.
On the first page, give the title of the paper, name(s) of author(s), institutional affiliation(s), and the name (with complete address and phone number) to whom correspondence should be directed; supply a running title of 40 characters including spaces. On the second page, supply an abstract of no more than 250 words, stating the aims, results, and conclusions drawn from the study. This should be followed by the introduction, materials and methods, results, discussion, acknowledgments, and references. Results and discussion may either be separate sections or combined. Begin each of these sections on a separate page. Authors should review the style and clarity of their manuscripts with colleagues before submission. Please follow the protocol described herein to avoid delay in publication. Authors should note that manuscripts may be edited if needed to ensure clear grammatic English usage. The editors welcome suggestions concerning potential reviewers.
Brief Report
Submission of Brief Reports is also welcome. A Brief Report should communicate new methodological information in the field of gene transfer and therapy. It should be divided as follows: Summary (no more than 250 words), Introduction, Materials and Methods, Results and Discussion (please consider that in Brief Reports, Results and Discussion can be fused), Acknowledgments, and References. The whole report should be composed of no more than four journal pages (about 3,000 words), including tables and figures. For general rules please follow the guidelines given for regular papers.
Tables and Illustrations
Use Arabic numerals to number tables. Do not repeat information that is given in the text, and do not make a table for data that can be given in the text in one or two sentences. Provide titles for all tables. Define all acronyms in table footnotes. All other types of table footnotes should be designated using superscript letters, not symbols.
Electronic submission of art MUST follow these guidelines:
- Do not include any illustrations as part of your text file.
- Do not prepare any figures in Word as they are not workable.
- Line illustrations must be submitted at 1200 DPI.
- Halftones and color photos should be submitted at 300 DPI.
- Please submit only TIFF or EPS files.
- Color art must be saved as CYMK not RGB or INDEX. If RGB files are submitted, the files will be converted to CYMK, and some slight color variation may occur.
- Do NOT submit PowerPoint or Excel files. Adobe is the software of choice.
A legend should be supplied for each illustration, and all legends numbered consecutively and provided (double spaced) on a separate page. All symbol definitions should be in figure legend, not as a key within the figure. If possible please use Arial font for figure text. Figures should be numbered in the order cited in the text. Images should not show the name of the manufacturer. Please keep in mind that the figures will be reduced, so please do not submit large figures/graphs that contain small type, as the text within the figure will not be readable after reduction.
The Journal will publish color photographs, but the author will be charged for the cost of color separations and printing at the rate of $275 per piece of color art plus $1,200 per page of color. The Publisher will provide the author with a more precise cost estimate when the figures are received. For further details, contact the Editor or Publisher.
Abstracts
Each paper should have an abstract of no longer than 250 words.
References
All references in text should be cited alphabetically, within year, by authors and dates. e.g. The ribosomal RNA (rrn) operons in E. coli contain single copies of each of the 16S, 23S, and 5S r(RNA) genes (Pace, 1973; Rogers and Smith, 1973; Andrews et al., 1978).
If more than two authors are involved, use et al. after the first author's name.
e.g. (Sogin et al., 1971).
If several papers by the same authors are cited in one sentence, use a lower case letter designation to indicate the individual papers.
e.g. (Dunn and Studier, 1973a,b). Use same designation in reference list.
All references in the reference section should be double spaced and listed in alphabetical order at the end of the paper. References should include complete titles of cited papers and all authors.
Journal citation: PACE, N. (1973). Structure and synthesis of the ribosomal ribonucleic acid of prokaryotes. Bacteriol. Rev. 37, 562-603.
Book citation: BROSIUS, J. (1987). Expression vectors employing A, trp, lac, and lpp-derived promoters. In Vectors, a Survey of Molecular Cloning Vectors and Their Uses. R.L. Rodriguez and D.T. Denhardt, eds. (Butterworth Publishers, Stoneham, MA) pp. 205-225.
When dates from an unpublished source are given, supply the researcher's name. If work is in press, give journal in which it is to be published or name of publisher. Abbreviations of journal names should follow the style of Medline.
Permissions
The author must obtain permission whenever it is required in conjunction with the reproduction of material such as figures and tables from copyrighted material. Written permission must be obtained from the publisher of the journal or book concerned. The publication from which the figure or table is taken must be listed in the reference list. Finally, a footnote to a reprinted table, or of the legend of a reprinted figure should read, "reprinted by permission from Jones et al." and list the appropriate reference. All permissions listings must be shown in the manuscript—they cannot be entered on proofs.
Manuscripts submitted to this Journal must not be under consideration elsewhere.
Acknowledgements
Any contributor who does not meet the criteria for authorship should be listed in the “Acknowledgements” section. Examples of a contributor may be individuals who provided technical support, writing assistance, or provided research materials. All funding sources, institutional and corporate, should be listed in this section.
Author Disclosure Statement
Immediately following the Acknowledgments section, include a section entitled “Author Disclosure Statement.” In this portion of the paper, authors must disclose any commercial associations that might create a conflict of interest in connection with submitted manuscripts. This statement should include appropriate information for EACH author, thereby representing that competing financial interests of all authors have been appropriately disclosed according to the policy of the Journal. It is important that all conflicts of interest, whether they are actual or potential, be disclosed. This information will remain confidential while the paper is being reviewed and will not influence the editorial decision. Please see the Uniform Requirements for Manuscripts Submitted to Biomedical Journals at http://www.icmje.org/index.html#conflicts for further guidance. If no conflicts exist, the authors must state “No competing financial interests exist."
Definitions
Competing Interests: A competing interest exists when an individual (or the individual’s institution) has financial or personal relationships that inappropriately influence his actions. These competing interests may be potential or actual, financial or other.
Competing Financial Interests: Personal Financial Interests: Stocks or shares in a company that may gain or lose financially from publication of this paper; consulting fees or other remuneration from an organization that may gain or lose financially from publication of this paper; patents or patent applications that are owned by or licensed to companies/institutions that may gain or lose value from publication of this paper.
Funding: Research support by organizations that may gain or lose financially from publication of this paper. This support includes salary, equipment, supplies, honoraria, reimbursement or prepayment for attending symposia, and other expenses.
Employment: Recent (within the past 5 years), current, or anticipated employment by an organization that may gain or lose financially from publication of this paper.
Other Competing Interests: Any personal relationship which may inappropriately affect the integrity of the research reported (by an author) or the objectivity of the review of the manuscript (by a reviewer or Editor), for example, competition between investigators, previous disagreements between investigators, or bias in professional judgment.
Competing Interest for Reviewers
The Editors leave it to the discretion of the invited reviewer to state whether or not they have any type of conflict with any of the authors on the manuscript. Such conflicts might include: recent or ongoing collaborations with the authors, having previously reviewed the manuscript in its draft stages, reviewer is in direct competition with the authors, or has a financial interest in the outcome of the manuscript. Editors will take this information into consideration when deciding whether or not to use the reviewer, or in evaluation of the reviewer’s comments.
Should the reviewer feel they can not be objective in their review for financial, personal or other reasons, they should decline to review the manuscript.
We do not exclude reviewers who previously reviewed a specific manuscript for another journal. The comments offered by a qualified reviewer are valuable to the peer-review process and it is important for the reviewer to consider that the author may have already revised the manuscript based on his/her previous comments.
Competing Interest for Editor-in-Chief and Associate Editors
The Editor-in-Chief and Associate Editors will rescue themselves from participating in the review process of any manuscript in which there is a potential or actual competing interest.
Sharing of Materials Policy
Authors must honor any reasonable request for materials, methods, or data necessary to reproduce or validate the research findings.
Reprints
Reprints may be ordered by using the special reprint order form that will accompany the proofs. Reprints ordered after the issue is printed will be charged at a higher rate. Human Gene Therapy will distribute or make available short press releases on newsworthy papers.
