Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Despite being the birthplace of several great developmental biologists over the past century, Developmental Biology has not been at the forefront of science in either Central or Eastern Europe in the past couple of decades. The Visegrád Society for Developmental Biology (V4SDB) was established in 2018 to provide better local visibility for this exciting scientific field and to act as an amplifier for the results of developmental biologists from this region. This Special Issue will provide a conduit to do just that and promote the discoveries of colleagues, especially those presented at the second meeting of our Society, scheduled to take place at Szeged in early September 2021 (https://www.v4sdbszeged.com).

While our main goal is to provide better visibility for developmental biologists from the Visegrád (V4) and neighboring countries, for this Special Issue, we also welcome contributions from all of our international colleagues.

You may choose our Joint Special Issue in Life.

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. Journal of Developmental Biology is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1800 CHF (Swiss Francs). 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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue

  • Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
  • Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
  • Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
  • External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
  • e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
