About the journal
The Journal of The Cell Kinetics Society, The European Study Group for Cell Proliferation and The International Cell Cycle Society
Cell Proliferation is a journal devoted to studies into all aspects of cell proliferation and differentiation in normal and abnormal states; control systems and mechanisms operating at inter- and intracellular, molecular and genetic levels; modification by and interactions with chemical and physical agents; mathematical modelling; and the development of new techniques. In addition to complete papers the Journal will publish invited review articles, book reviews and correspondence regarding published papers and topics of general interest.
Instructions to Authors
Cell Proliferation is a journal devoted to studies into all aspects of cell proliferation and differentiation in normal and abnormal states; control systems and mechanisms operating at inter- and intracellular, molecular and genetic levels; modification by and interactions with chemical and physical agents; mathematical modelling; and the development of new techniques. In addition to complete papers the Journal will publish invited review articles, book reviews and correspondence regarding published papers and topics of general interest.
All papers will be published in English.
Papers accepted become the copyright of the Journal. A completed copyright assignment form must be included with the submitted manuscript.

They should be typewritten on one side of the paper only, with a wide margin, be double-spaced throughout and bear the title of the paper and name and address of each author, together with the name of the hospital, laboratory or institution where the work has been carried out. The name, full postal address and telephone, fax and e-mail numbers of the author for correspondence, who will be responsible for reading the proofs, should be given on the first page. An informative abstract must be included. Four complete copies should be sent to the editor. The author should keep a copy of the manuscript. The Editorial Board reserves the right to make literary corrections.
Spelling should conform to The Concise Oxford Dictionary of Current English. Full names with uncommon abbreviations must be given with the first mention, new abbreviations should be coined only for unwieldy names and should not be used at all unless the names occur frequently. In the title and abstract unusual abbreviations should be avoided; in the introduction and discussion they should be used sparingly. SI (Système International) abbreviations should be used for units; other abbreviations should conform with those shown in the Journal.
Illustrations
Illustrations should be marked on the back with the name(s) of the author(s) and the title of the paper. Where there is any possible doubt as to the orientation of an illustration, the top should be marked with an arrow. Each figure should bear a reference number corresponding to a similar number in the text. Photographs and photomicrographs should be unmounted glossy prints and should be indicated on a transparent overlay. Colour illustrations will be accepted when found necessary by the Editor, although the author will be expected to contribute to the cost.
Therefore, please note that if there is colour artwork in your manuscript when it is accepted for publication, Blackwell Publishing require you to complete and return a colour work agreement form before your paper can be published. This form can be downloaded as a PDF* from the internet. The web address for the form is: http://www.blackwellpublishing.com/pdf/Sub3000_X_CoW.pdf

* To read PDF files, you must have Acrobat Reader installed on your computer. If you do not have this program, this is available as a free download from the following web address: http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html
Diagrams should be on separate sheets; they should be drawn with black Indian ink on white paper or faint-rule graph paper and should be about twice the size of the final reproduction. Lines should be of sufficient thickness to stand reduction. Artwork may also be supplied electronically: photographs at TIFF or EPS files, line art as EPS files or embedded in a word processor document. Full details can be found at http://www.blackwell-science.com/elecmed/digill.htm . A hard copy should accompany all electronic files. Each illustration should be accompanied by a legend clearly describing it; these legends should be grouped on a separate sheet of paper.
There should be as few tables as possible and these should include only essential data; they should be typewritten on separate sheets and should be given Arabic numbers.
References
Only papers closely related to the author's work should be referred to; exhaustive lists should be avoided. References should be made by giving the author's surname, with the year of publication in parentheses. When reference is made to a work by three authors, all names should be given when cited for the first time and thereafter only the first name adding et al.e.g. (Blackett et al. 1952); for four or more authors, the first name followed by et al. should be used on all occasions. If several papers by the same author and from the same year are cited, a, b, c, etc., should be put after the year of publication, e.g. Blackett et al. (1952a) or Blackett et al. (1952a,b).
All references should be brought together at the end of the paper in alphabetical order. References to articles and papers should mention: name(s) followed by the initials of the author(s); year of publication in parentheses; title of paper; abbreviated title of the Journal as shown in Index Medicus: volume; number of the first page of the article. References to books and monographs should include: author(s) and/or editor( s); year of publication; title; edition; place of publication; publisher; page referred to. Examples:
Patt HM, Quastler H. (1963) Radiation effects on cell renewal and related systems. Physiol. Rev, 43, 357.
Potten CS, Hendry JH, Al-Barwari SE. (1983) A cellular analysis of radiation injury in epidermis. In: Potten CS. Hendry JH, eds. Cytotoxic Insult to Tissue. Effects of Cell Lineages. Edinburgh: Churchill Livingston, 1960.
Page Proofs
These will be submitted to the author for proof correction (see under 'manuscripts') and should be returned to the Editor within 3 days. Major alterations from the text cannot be accepted.
Proofs will be sent via e-mail as an Acrobat PDF (portable document format) file. The e-mail server must be able to accept attachments up to 4 MB in size. Acrobat Reader will be required in order to read this file. This software can be downloaded (free of charge) from the following Web site:
www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html
This will enable the file to be opened, read on screen, and printed out in order for any corrections to be added. Further instructions will be sent with the proof. Proofs will be posted if no e-mail address is available; in your absence, please arrange for a colleague to access your e-mail to retrieve the proofs.
Offprints
Fifty are supplied free and additional copies may be ordered on the form which will be sent to the author with the proofs. Disks
Following final approval of articles authors are asked to submit the accepted version on disk. These should be IBM-Psi compatible. An accurate hard copy must accompany each disk, together with details of the type of computer used, the software, and the disk system if known. Do not justify. Particular attention should be taken to ensure that any articles submitted in the form adhere exactly to the Journal style in all respects. Further details can be obtained from the publisher. Disks will not be returned to authors.
