The Journal The International Society of Bioelectromagnetism, ISBEM, established in 1999 the International Journal of Bioelectromagnetism, IJBEM. It is a peer-reviewed open access international scientific journal on the Internet devoted to the advancement and dissemination of scientific knowledge concerning bioelectromagnetism and related disciplines. With the 20 years’ history, it is, therefore, one of the firsts, if not the very first, open access scientific journal on the Internet. It is published two times per year and only in the English language. A printed version of the Journal is occasionally also available.
The Scope of BioelectromagnetismThe discipline of bioelectromagnetism examines the electric, electromagnetic, and magnetic phenomena that arise in biological tissues. These include
The elementary bioelectric source is an activating nerve or muscle cell. These form the peripheral and central nervous systems, especially the brain, as well as the skeletal and internal muscular systems, especially the cardiac muscle. The main application areas of bioelectromagnetism are basic and applied research in all these areas. The Aim of the IJBEMThe aim of the discipline of bioelectromagnetism is to increase the understanding of the theory of bioelectric and biomagnetic phenomena and to facilitate their application for improving the diagnosis and therapy of diseases as well as the measurement and monitoring of physiological parameters also in healthy subjects. It is the aim of the International Journal of Bioelectromagnetism to be the fundamental and widely applicable forum for promoting this scope. Publishing in the IJBEMThe IJBEM accepts original scientific articles, review articles, short communications, case reports, technical communications, and clinical reviews from the field of bioelectromagnetism. The articles may discuss basic research as well as the application of bioelectromagnetic phenomena in clinical diagnosis and therapy. Articles discussing the detection, computerized processing, analysis, and imaging of bioelectromagnetic signals fall centrally in the area of IJBEM. Articles discussing the use of electric and magnetic fields in stimulation are welcome as well. The Policy of Screening for Plagiarism
The editor uses the program Grammarly (www.grammarly.com/) for screening for plagiarism. It compares the text with billions of web pages and reports the possibly found matching in detail. The editor also uses Grammarly to check the spelling and grammar of the manuscript. Publishing ChargePublishing in the IJBEM is free of charge for members of the International Society for Bioelectromagnetism (www.isbem.org). For non-members the APC (article processing fee) is 250 €. The journal doesn't have a submission fee.
