About the journal
Instructions to Authors
Biosecurity and Bioterrorism: Biodefense Strategy, Practice, and Science is a quarterly peer-reviewed journal. Its purpose is to serve as an international forum for debate and exploration of the key strategic, scientific, and operational issues posed by biological weapons and bioterrorism. The Journal provides multidisciplinary analyses and perspectives essential to the creation of strategies and programs that can diminish the threat of bioweapons.
The intended audiences for this Journal are those professional communities that have strategic, scientific, or operational responsibilities critical to improving biosecurity, including medicine, public health, law, national security, bioscientific research, agriculture, food safety, and drug and vaccine development.
The Editors encourage submissions to the Journal from professionals in these fields and others who have the responsibility or opportunity to improve biosecurity. Contributors are asked to follow these guidelines:
- Send an outline or letter summarizing your paper before submitting—or even writing—the paper. We can give you quick feedback on whether the idea fits the journal.
- Do not submit papers that have been published or that are currently being considered by another journal.
- Original articles, reports, and case studies should range from 3,000 to 5,000 words. Leading edge review papers of a scientific concept or technological application of relevance to biodefense or bioweapons development may be up to 5,000 words in length. Editorials and commentaries may be on any issues of relevance to the field but should be succinct and include appropriate documentation. Letters to the Editors intended for publication should be no more than 500 words and may be edited.
- Avoid jargon and overly technical presentations. Our readers come from a number of different fields, and your article should be understandable to well-informed, intelligent readers from various disciplines.
- In addition to presenting the methods and results of a study, you should draw implications from the results and discuss their relevance.
- All authors and co-authors, by definition, are responsible for a significant part of the manuscript. All authors should have taken part in writing the paper, reviewing it, and revising its intellectual and technical content. Any author whose name appears on a paper assumes responsibility and accountability for the content. All authors will be required to sign a copyright release form.
Submission Guidelines
- Manuscripts may be submitted by e-mail to jfox@upmc-biosecurity.org. If we have problems opening your file, we may ask that you send a hard copy and diskette.
- Send a cover letter, also by e-mail, that designates the corresponding author, including name, mailing address, daytime telephone number, fax number, and e-mail address.
- The cover letter may also include suggestions for people to review the paper—including their names, addresses, phone numbers, and e-mail addresses—and the names of anyone the authors do not wish to review the paper.
- All material published in the journal is copyrighted by Mary Ann Liebert, Inc., including print and electronic rights. This ensures that requests from third parties to reproduce papers are handled efficiently and consistently and will also allow the material to be as widely disseminated as possible. Forms for this purpose will be sent to authors when manuscripts have been accepted for publication. Authors may use their own material in other publications, provided that the Journal is acknowledged as the original place of publication and that the publisher is notified in advance.
- Send contributions and correspondence to: Jaclyn Fox, Managing Editor, Biosecurity and Bioterrorism, Center for Biosecurity of UPMC, Pier 4 Building, 621 East Pratt Street, Suite 210, Baltimore, MD 21202; Phone: 443.573.3304; Fax: 443.573.3305; e-mail: jfox@upmc-biosecurity.org
Manuscript Submission and Copyright Agreement Form
The Copyright Agreement form (available from web site at http://www.liebertpub.com/media/content/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 914-740-2108.
Preparation of Manuscripts
- Type the entire manuscript, including tables and figure legends, double-spaced with 1-inch margins on all sides. Number pages consecutively.
- Title page. The title page should include the authors?names, job titles, and affiliations; a title of about 45 characters (including spaces); and full contact information for the corresponding author: mailing address, telephone and fax numbers, and e-mail address. Do not include authors?names on subsequent pages.
- Abstract. The abstract should state the topic of the article and provide a summary of its main points. It should not exceed 250 words.
- Text. Insert appropriate subheads in the text. A typical research article will have an introduction, material and methods, results, discussion, acknowledgments, and references. Policy articles, commentaries, and other types of articles should include appropriate subheads.
- Acknowledgments. Authors should acknowledge only those people and institutions that have made substantive contributions to the study. Details of sources of funding must be given, and any potential conflicts of interest must be declared (e.g., financial, personal, political, or academic).
- References. The references should be cited in the text using the numerical order of citation method. The reference list should be at the end of the paper, double-spaced, and organized numerically by order of citation. References should be presented according to the style of the Uniform Requirements for Manuscripts Submitted to Biomedical Journals (Vancouver style) [http://www.acponline.org/journals/resource/resortoc.htm], as shown below:
Journal article Chadee DD, Kitron U. Spatial and temporal patterns of imported malaria cases and local transmission in Trinidad. Am J Trop Med Hyg 1999;61:513-7.
Book Fish D. Population ecology of Ixodes dammin. In: Ginsberg H, ed. Ecology and Environmental Management of Lyme Disease. Rutgers, NJ: Rutgers University Press;1993:25-42.
- Tables. Type each table, with its title, on a separate page. Use Arabic numerals to number tables. Cite tables in sequence in the text. Explain abbreviations used in the body of the table in footnotes.
- Illustrations. Cite figures consecutively within the manuscript. All original line art, graphs, and glossy photographs for halftone illustrations should be high quality and camera-ready. Photocopies cannot be used for reproduction. A label should be attached to the back of each print indicating the author, article title, figure number, and top of figure. Do not write on the back of prints, use paper clips, or mark on the prints.
Illustrations may be submitted on disk, labeled clearly with the program used. All images must be saved as high-resolution eps or tiff files. (Do not use gif or ppt formats.) Be sure the disk contains only the relevant illustrations and that they are clearly identified. When submitting figures on disk, please also submit a corresponding laser printout for identification purposes only. Line illustrations should be submitted at 1200 dpi, and photographs should be submitted at 300 dpi minimum.
- Permissions. Figures, tables, and text taken from other sources must be accompanied by a written statement from both author and publisher of the original material granting permission for reproduction. Include written permission from authors to cite unpublished data or papers still in press.
- Reprints. Reprints may be ordered by using the reprint order form that accompanies page proofs. Provide the name, address, and e-mail of the person to whom the proofs and reprint form should be sent. Reprints ordered after the issue is printed will be charged for at a substantially higher rate.
