Journal of Cell Science announces Transparent peer review
In the interests of promoting transparency around the editorial process, Journal of Cell Science will now be publishing a ‘Peer review history’ file alongside published papers, where the author has opted in to such a file being published. All research papers submitted on or after 1 August 2019 are eligible. More information can be found here.
First Person interviews
Have you seen our First Person interviews with the early-career first authors of our papers? The authors talk about their work in and out of the lab, the journeys that led them to where they are now and the scientists who inspired them along the way. Recently, we caught up with first authors Carlos Alonso, Aryeh Babkoff, Andrew Porter and Yohan Kim.

Mole - Wouldn't it, too, be nice?
“Maybe, when we review, we might put ourselves into the authors' place (where we have all been) and point out the good along with the ‘bad’ (not to mention, ‘ugly’).”
Journal of Cell Science is pleased to welcome submissions for an upcoming special issue on 'Cell Biology of the Immune System' edited by Ana-Maria Lennon-Duménil. We invite you to showcase your breakthrough research on all aspects of cell biology as it relates to the immune system. The articles within this issue will receive extensive exposure to a broad audience of cell biologists and immunologists. Extended submission deadline: 15 August 2019.
