Do you wish to publish your research in Cellular Microbiology?

We are awaiting your submission at https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/cell-micro

Please make sure to follow our author guidelines during the preparation of your manuscript. Please note that these have been updated recently. Cellular Microbiology requests now Graphical Abstract and Take Away for most article types.

The Graphical Abstracts will be displayed in the table of contents. These images are meant to attract reader interest and may encapsulate a key result or conclusion of the paper. Appropriate images might include molecular or cellular structures, appealing graphics, or models or summary figures. A figure (or panel of a figure) from the main text may be used, if appropriate, or an image may be prepared specifically for this purpose.

The Take Away summarizes the main points of your article. It needs to be included in the article itself and should outline 3-5 major points/key findings to attract the reader’s attention and to enhance the article’s placing in search engines. Please limit each point to maximal 80 characters (including spaces). The Take Away should attract readers to your article as well as let them remember your main results.

Upgraded Data Sharing Policy

Cellular Microbiology expects data sharing. All accepted manuscripts are required to publish a data availability statement to confirm the presence or absence of shared data. Review Wiley’s Data Sharing policy where you will be able to see and select the data availability statement that is right for your submission. Please find here standard templates for the data availability statement to be used in your manuscript. While it is optional for initial submissions, a data availability statement is required when submitting your revised manuscript.

While submitting your manuscript, please make sure to include the data availability statement in the submission system as well as in your main manuscript file. During the submission process, you will find the relevant field to enter the data availability statement in “Step 6: Details & Comments”.
