== About Bioenergetics Communications ==
Β 
=== Open Science ===
::::* '''Bioenergetics Communications''' is the Oroboros journal primarily intended to publish and disseminate rapidly short technical reports on the O2k-technology, to foster interlaboratory collaborations to optimize and standardize methods and protocols, and to combine and compare interlaboratory results. This rapid communication is part of the quality of science transfer, yet considering precautions against 'bad science'.
Β 
::::* Protocols have to be shared rapidly, thus enabling research groups to quickly test, harmonize and implement standardized procedures to obtain more reproducible and comparable results.
Β 
::::* It is particularly important to publish protocols that do not (yet) work, such as application of the Q-module in living cells. This saves a lot of time for all who work along the same lines of research and may encourage collaborations to solve the issue.
Β 
::::* Contributions are invited on very specific methodological details with preliminary examples of applications, sharing information rapidly rather than adding it much later to the supplementary material of extended research papers.
Β 
Β 
== Information for authors ==
''Work in progress''
=== Format ===
::::* Manuscripts in English
Β 
::::* Publications in '''Bioenergetics Communications''' include a title, authors and affiliations, author contributions, an introduction (presenting the purpose of the publication), materials and methods, results, a discussion or conclusions, references, and acknowledgements. However, it is not necessary to follow a fixed format, ''e.g.'', the authors may choose to place the materials and methods section before the results or at the end before the references, and the discussion section can be separated from the results, or both sections can be merged. Thus authors can focus on the quality of their work instead of following the stereotype of a journal format.
Β 
=== Short communications ===
::::* '''Short communications''' - have the format of extended abstracts, without belonging to a specific conference. ''Compare'': [[Extended_abstracts]]. Extended abstracts posted in '''MitoFit Preprint Archives''' in the context of any conference may be submitted to '''Bioenergetics Communications''', if the contents is suitable.
::::* '''Comments''' - provide critical discussions of publications, includig summaries of journal clubs.
Β 
=== Communications ===
::::* '''Technical communications''' - contain instrumental and methodological details on HRR particularly focused on quality control.
::::* '''Innovations''' - introduce tests of new instrumental developments or novel applications.
::::* '''SUIT protocols''' - present the concept of a specific SUIT protocol, exceeding the MitoPedia description and containing more detail than typical methods sections in other publications.
::::* '''Negative results''' - discuss findings on methodological difficulties that failed to lead to a relevant innovation.
Β 
=== From preprint to publication ===
Β 
::::* The formats of preprint and publication are used in a stepwise process:
::::# '''MitoFit Preprint Archives''' is the fast lane of Open Access communication without peer review. Authors should indicate if the preprint is considered for '''Bioenergetics Communications'''.
::::# '''MitoFit preprints''' posted by the authors as potential publications in '''Bioenergetics Communications''' are immediately delegated to our section editors:
::::## Communication with the authors to plan the non-anonymous '''Open Peer Review''' process. Up to three reviewers should be suggested by the authors.
::::## '''Version 1''': External review should lead quickly to publication in '''Bioenergetics Communications''' including the correspondence with the reviewer(s) as an appended discussion and reference to the preprint - without the option for reviewers to insist on additional experiments, but strict focus on the quality of the presently provided information.
::::## '''Version 2''': Reviewers and editors may encourage follow-up interlaboratory collaborations, with extended information added by the original authors or new collaborators; contributions by reviewers may be integrated and reviewers listed as coauthors and declared as such in the section 'Author contributions' upon mutual agreement between original authors and reviewers;
::::## '''Folow-up Versions''': Manuscripts may be updated and extended - particularly with added information and coauthors from other laboratories.
Β 
Β 
== The Digital Object Identifier ==
::::* Contributions to "Bioenergetics Communications" are citable publications with a [[Digital Object Identifier| DOI number]] in the format:
:::::::: '''doi:10.26124/bec:YY####'''
::::* All versions have a specific DOI version number, such that each version remains Open Access and the discussion is added to the article page.
