State-of-the-Art Molecular Biophysics in Germany

Dear Colleagues,

This Collection aims to publish contributions on all aspects of the physical principles governing biomolecular and biomimetic systems in Germany. We welcome submissions that provide novel and mechanistic insights and papers that report significant advances in the fields. Topics include, but are not limited to:

• molecular structure;
• fluorescence imaging;
• single-molecule microscopy;
• spectroscopic techniques;
• biomedical optics

The only limitation is that the main part of the study has to have been carried out in Germany or by German researchers.

The reliability of the results provided by novel tools for virtual screening and/or the discovery of new actives by virtual screening must be either validated in silico or in vitro before first submission of a manuscript to IJMS. Theoretical studies should offer new insights into understanding experimental results and/or suggest new experimentally testable hypotheses.

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.
