PSB 2013 Paper Format Instructions

PSB 2013

The core of the conference consists of rigorously peer-reviewed full-length papers reporting on original work. Accepted papers will be published electronically and indexed in PubMed (submission to PubMed Central should be made by the author), and the best of these will be presented orally to the entire conference. Researchers wishing to present their research without official publication are encouraged to submit a one page abstract by the abstract deadline listed below to present their work in the poster sessions.

Papers must be submitted to the PSB 2013 paper management system at

http://psb.wufoo.com/forms/psb-paper-submission/


All papers must be submitted in electronic format to the paper management system.

The accepted file formats are: postscript (*.ps) and Adobe Acrobat (*.pdf). Attached files should be named with the last name of the first author (e.g. altman.ps or altman.pdf). Hardcopy submissions or unprocessed TEX or LATEX files or electronic submissions not submitted through the paper management system will be rejected without review.

Each paper must be accompanied by a cover letter. The cover letter should be the first page of your paper submission. The cover letter must state the following:

Submitted papers are limited to twelve (12) pages (not including the cover letter) in our publication format. Please format your paper according to the instructions below. If figures can not be easily resized and placed precisely in the text, then it should be clear that with appropriate modifications, the total manuscript length would be within the page limit. Color images are accepted for publication at no additional charge.
