Advances in Biophysics of Cellular Membranes

Dear Colleagues,

Membrane research has always been an interdisciplinary subject inviting and requiring biologists, physicists, and chemists to establish the fundamental principles of membrane structures and functions. This tenet is ever more relevant with the significant advancements in structural biological and computational tools, in which even a single experiment may require cooperation between scientists from different disciplines. The European Joint Theory/Experiment Meeting on Membranes (EJTEMM 2024 to be held at the University of Debrecen, Hungary between 12–14 June) is organized with the aforementioned principle in mind, covering a wide range of subjects of theoretical and experimental membrane research. Corresponding to the sessions of the meeting, reviews and original articles are invited for submission (not exclusively) in the following areas: membrane proteins, non-bilayer membrane structures, extracellular vesicles, membrane active/cell penetrating peptides, membrane mimetics, lipid–protein interactions, membrane curvature, and membrane dynamics. In addition to contributions from participants of the conference, manuscripts are welcome from other interested research groups. All manuscripts will be peer-reviewed. The deadline of manuscript submission is 31 October, 2024.

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. Cells is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2700 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.
