Title
Journal of Histochemistry and Cytochemistry
Description
The Journal of Histochemistry and Cytochemistry publishes significant advances in molecular detection techniques and their application to biologically meaningful hypotheses. In addition to novel primary data papers, timely review articles on all aspects of cell biology are featured. The journal emphasizes microscopic analyses of cells and tissues but encourages submissions in which histochemical and cytochemical techniques are complemented by modern genetic, molecular and biochemical approaches. Manuscripts are invited from all fields of cell biology but particular emphasis is placed on mammalian development, neurobiology, pathology and immunology. Highest priority is given to manuscripts that use novel or state-of-the-art molecular detection techniques to address hypotheses about cellular function that are difficult or impossible to examine using other methods. Manuscript submissions receive prompt attention from the Editor-in-Chief and undergo peer review with the supervision of the Journal's Editorial Board. Editorial Board members are selected based on their expertise in histochemical and cytochemical techniques as applied to their respective scientific disciplines. The Journal provides a forum for descriptive studies of gene expression and function, particularly when such studies provide a foundation for mechanistic based hypothesis generation.
Authorship - The Journal of Histochemistry and Cytochemistry (JHC) expects that all of the authors listed on a manuscript have contributed substantially to the submitted paper. By submission of the manuscript, cover letter, and Assignment of Copyright Agreement, the corresponding author affirms that all named authors have agreed to be listed as authors of the paper. Furthermore, by their signatures on the Assignment of Copyright Agreement, all authors affirm that they have both read and approved the manuscript, and that they take responsibility for the content of the article.
Conflict of Interest - The JHC requires that all authors of a submitted manuscript disclose to the Journal Editorial Office any potential conflicts of interest that they may have in relation to the content of the manuscript, including (but not limited to) employment by the sponsoring agency, consultancies, stock ownership, equity interests or patent-licensing arrangements. The corresponding author is responsible for guaranteeing that all authors understand and are in compliance with the Journal's conflict of interest policy. Disclosure of an actual or potential conflict of interest will not necessarily disqualify work for publication but it is necessary for critical evaluation of the work by editors and readers. Additionally, authors must take full responsibility for correctly acknowledging all funding sources supporting the work reported in their papers. The Journal does not publish retractions or errata to correct errors in reporting acknowledgements.
