Journal Title：Development

Development’s scope covers all aspects of plant and animal development, including stem cell biology and regeneration. The single most important criterion for acceptance in Development is scientific excellence. Research papers (articles and reports) should therefore pose and test a significant hypothesis or address a significant question, and should provide novel perspectives that advance our understanding of development. We also encourage submission of papers that use computational methods or mathematical models to obtain significant new insights into developmental biology topics. Manuscripts that are descriptive in nature will be considered only when they lay important groundwork for a field and/or provide novel resources for understanding developmental processes of broad interest to the community.

Development includes a Techniques and Resources section for the publication of new methods, datasets, and other types of resources. Papers describing new techniques should include a proof-of-principle demonstration that the technique is valuable to the developmental biology community; they need not include in-depth follow-up analysis. The technique must be described in sufficient detail to be easily replicated by other investigators. Development will also consider protocol-type papers of exceptional interest to the community. We welcome submission of Resource papers, for example those reporting new databases, systems-level datasets, or genetic resources of major value to the developmental biology community. For all papers, the data or resource described must be made available to the community with minimal restrictions upon publication.

To aid navigability, Development has dedicated sections of the journal to stem cells & regeneration and to human development. The criteria for acceptance into these sections is identical to those outlined above. Authors and editors are encouraged to nominate appropriate manuscripts for inclusion in one of these sections.

發(fā)展的范圍涵蓋植物和動(dòng)物發(fā)育的所有方面，包括干細(xì)胞生物學(xué)和再生。發(fā)展中最重要的接受標(biāo)準(zhǔn)是科學(xué)卓越性。因此，研究論文（文章和報(bào)告）應(yīng)提出并測(cè)試一個(gè)重要的假設(shè)或解決一個(gè)重要的問(wèn)題，并應(yīng)提供促進(jìn)我們對(duì)發(fā)展的理解的新觀點(diǎn)。我們還鼓勵(lì)提交使用計(jì)算方法或數(shù)學(xué)模型來(lái)獲得對(duì)發(fā)育生物學(xué)主題的重要新見解的論文。只有當(dāng)描述性手稿為某個(gè)領(lǐng)域奠定重要基礎(chǔ)和/或?yàn)槔斫馍鐓^(qū)廣泛感興趣的發(fā)育過(guò)程提供新資源時(shí)，才會(huì)考慮這些手稿。

發(fā)展包括一個(gè)技術(shù)和資源部分，用于發(fā)布新方法、數(shù)據(jù)集和其他類型的資源。描述新技術(shù)的論文應(yīng)包括原理證明，證明該技術(shù)對(duì)發(fā)育生物學(xué)界有價(jià)值；它們不需要包括深入的后續(xù)分析。必須對(duì)該技術(shù)進(jìn)行足夠詳細(xì)的描述，以便其他研究人員輕松復(fù)制。 Development 還將考慮社區(qū)特別感興趣的協(xié)議類型論文。我們歡迎提交資源論文，例如報(bào)告新數(shù)據(jù)庫(kù)、系統(tǒng)級(jí)數(shù)據(jù)集或?qū)Πl(fā)育生物學(xué)社區(qū)具有重大價(jià)值的遺傳資源的論文。對(duì)于所有論文，所描述的數(shù)據(jù)或資源必須在出版時(shí)以最少的限制向社區(qū)提供。

為了提高可導(dǎo)航性，Development 在期刊中專門設(shè)立了干細(xì)胞與再生和人類發(fā)育部分。這些部分的接受標(biāo)準(zhǔn)與上述標(biāo)準(zhǔn)相同。鼓勵(lì)作者和編輯提名合適的稿件納入其中一個(gè)部分。

Development創(chuàng)刊于1987年，由Company of Biologists Ltd出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋生物 - 發(fā)育生物學(xué)全領(lǐng)域，此刊是該細(xì)分領(lǐng)域中屬于非常不錯(cuò)的SCI期刊，在行業(yè)細(xì)分領(lǐng)域中學(xué)術(shù)影響力較大，專業(yè)度認(rèn)可很高，所以對(duì)原創(chuàng)文章要求創(chuàng)新性較高，如果您的文章質(zhì)量很高，可以嘗試。平均審稿速度 約3.0個(gè)月 ，影響因子指數(shù)3.7，該期刊近期沒有被列入國(guó)際期刊預(yù)警名單，廣大學(xué)者值得一試。
