Biological Processes and Systems
A section of Processes (ISSN 2227-9717).
Section Information
The Biological Systems section of the Processes journal is the ideal forum for the publication of significant original and high-quality research, as well as reviews, at the interface of engineering and biological systems. The scope of interest ranges from investigations of sub-cellular/microbial processes, to tissues and microbial communities, to organs and bioreactors. Both life science applications, including enzymology, modeling, and system biology, and industrial biotechnology contributions are of interest to this section. All manuscripts submitted for publication under this section will undergo the high-quality peer review process of the Processes journal and, if accepted, will be published rapidly online.
