About the journal
|
The journal is a forum for the original scientific results of basic, applied, and clinical research involving any aspect of the pineal gland or its hormonal products in all vertebrate species. Essential criteria for publication are soundness, novelty, and timeliness, as well as clarity of presentation. Experimental data that are contrary to currently accepted thinking or divergent from actual dogma will be considered, provided the findings are based on solid, new experimental observations. All submitted papers must be complete in themselves. Case reports will be considered if the findings contribute significantly to an understanding of some aspect of the pineal gland. It is the expressed aim of the journal to serve pineal researchers in all disciplines. |

Abstract
Submit an abstract of 250 words or less that will serve in lieu of a concluding summary. The abstract must be written in complete sentences and succinctly state the objectives, experimental design of the paper, principal observations and conclusions; it should be intelligible without reference to the rest of the paper.
References
Papers in the reference list are numbered and placed in the order of their citation in the text. In the text, papers are cited by the appropriate number. Follow these examples:

Where a DOI is included in a reference, it should be cited as follows:

Please make these changes in your manuscript before you return the revised version.
Tables
All tables must be cited in the text and must have titles. Table titles should be complete but brief. Information other than that defining the data should he presented as footnotes.
Figures
All figures must be cited in the text and must have legends. Number figure legends consecutively, e.g., Fig. 1., Fig. 2.
Number figures, including charts and graphs, consecutively throughout the text. Give text references to figures only in terms of the figure number.
General illustration instructions: Original illustrations, along with two sets of good-contrast photographic copies for review purposes, should be submitted with the manuscript.
The reverse side of each illustration should indicate: Authors name; Figure number; Top side of illustration; "Review copy" on those copies intended only for reviewers.
Do not fasten illustrations with paper clips, staples, etc., because they will mark the surface of the illustration.
Illustrations should be shipped flat and protected by heavy cardboard.
Illustrations
All illustrations must be submitted in complete and finished form with adequate labeling.
Black-and-white prints: Prints should be on white, non-matte paper.
Line drawings: Photographic prints should be submitted in lieu of original drawings. The artwork should be sharp and black to achieve maximum contrast. Use stippling and hatching techniques to achieve tonal quality.
Please supply electronic versions of your figures. These should be supplied as EPS or TIFF. Each complete figure should be placed in a separate file. Avoid using tints if possible; if shading is essential to the understanding of the figure, try to make it coarse. Information on our digital illustration standards can be obtained at: www.blackwellpublishing.com/authors/digill.asp.
