Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
IJMS is pleased to present a Special Issue that focuses on updates in the field of radiation biology. Research focused on biological response(s) to external radiation exposure, including the effects of radiation dose, dose rate, and radiation qualities, will be welcomed, especially studies that utilize in vitro and in vivo models to identify molecular mechanisms. While pure clinical studies are not within the scope of this Special Issue, clinical and model submissions with biomolecular experiments are appropriate. Studies that focus on the biological effects of internal radionuclide contamination may also be submitted. Additionally, research highlighting the current status of promising medical countermeasures against radiation damage, as well as radiation biomarkers, will be included in this Special Issue.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
