Bulletin (Sci. Bull.) is a multidisciplinary academicjournal supervised

by the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) and co-sponsored by the CAS

and the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC).Sci. Bull.

is a semi-monthly international journal publishing high-caliber

peer-reviewed research in a broad range of natural sciences and

high-tech fields based on its originality,scientific significance, and

whether it is of general interest.In addition, we are committed to

serving the scientific community with immediate, authoritative news and

valuable insights into upcoming trends around the globe.

Types of papers

Articles:

Originally report substantial advances regarding an important

scientific problem. Articles normally include a 250-word abstract, 4–6

keywords, up to 6 figures or tables and 60 references. Other supporting

information should usually be included in Supplementary materials that

will only be published online. Articles are suggested to be limited to

10 print pages, including references, captions, and notes.

Reviews:

Summarize the recent progress in certain core scientific disciplines,

comment on the research status, and highlight future directions. The

author(s) should focus on one topical aspect rather than provide a

comprehensive literature survey. Review papers shouldclosely relate to,

but notonly focus on the author’s own research work. Reviews are usually

solicited bythe editors, but unsolicited submissions may also be

considered. Reviews are suggestedto be limited to 15 pages including up

to 100 references, a 250-word abstract, 4–6 keywords, and a maximum of

displayed items and less than 15 references. Abstract and keywords are

not needed. Thus, the beginning paragraphs should present concise yet

sufficient background information that would allow the readers to

appreciate the rationale of the work, and put the study in a proper

perspective. Any other supporting information (if necessary) should be

submitted as Supplementary materials.

Perspectives:

Provide fresh insights into new advances in a specific research field

of science and technology, or scientific policy and other issues related

to the scientific community. Authors should not primarily discuss their

own work.

While being a snapshot of an issue or a problem, perspectives are expected to propose a solution in detail.

Perspectives should be less than 3000 words with a maximum of 15 references and 1–2 displayed items.

issues that have major influence on science or the scientific community.

with 1 displayed item and 15 references.

Commentaries:

Comment on a recent scientific publication, a general scientific issue,

or a policy of broad interest. While being a snapshot of an issue or a

problem, commentaries are expected to propose a solution in detail.

Commentaries are usually limited to 2 pages (~2000 words) with less than 10 references.

Correspondences: Remark on a recent publication inSci. Bull. or a brief introduction of a recent research advance.

individuals, or technological advancements in the field of science and

technology through a uniqueperspective. Abstract and keywords are not
