Short version of guide to authors

Contributors not used to EJNH format requirements are strongly advised to read some papers in published issues before submission, to familiarize themselves with EJNH style. EJNH publish only original Articles.

Articles are original reports whose conclusions represent a substantial advance in understanding of an important problem and have immediate, far-reaching implications. Articles have a summary for readers outside the discipline, separate from the main text and containing no references, of up to 150 words. The summary does not contain numbers, abbreviations, acronyms or measurements unless essential. It contains a brief account of the background and rationale of the work, followed by a statement of the main conclusions, introduced by the phrase ‘Here we show’ or its equivalent. The Article itself typically has about 3,000 words of text, beginning with up to 500 words of referenced text expanding on the background to the work (some overlap with the summary is acceptable), followed by a concise, focused account of the findings, and ending with one or two short paragraphs of discussion. The text can contain a few short subheadings consisting of about 20 but no more than 40 characters each. Figures are as small as possible: Articles typically have 5 or 6 figures. Legends and/or methods are additional to the main text. Methods sections are no more than 800 words long and ideally shorter; legends should not exceed 100 words each and start with a one-sentence title for the figure, followed by a brief explanation of the parts and symbols.

The journal is issued in English.
