Journal Guide

EPJ - Nonlinear Biomedical Physics is an open access journal, published under the brand SpringerOpen, dedicated to the application of nonlinear dynamics and integrative systems science to the quantitative modeling and understanding of how structure and function as well as dysfunctions and diseases emerge in complex biomedical matter and processes. Coverage is focused on the application-driven development of theoretical, experimental and computational techniques, including relevant methodologies, instrumentation and related advanced technology. Coverage includes systems biology, physiology and pharmacology, such diseases as epilepsy, cancer and diabetes, nonlinear data analysis of biomedical signals / complexity measures as diagnostic tools: EEG, ERPs, MEG, NIRS, PET, fMRI and more.

To submit a formal proposal for EPJ ST (edited volumes) Please propose a sufficiently specific title, give names and affiliations of all volume editors and provide a short rationale for putting such a special issue together.
Please submit a list (even if partially tentative), giving the abstracts of the contributions, as well as names and affiliations of the contributing authors and (important) the article type for each contribution, see below:

Article types:

a) Minireview: A typically 10-15 pages contribution, where approximately half of the material is in form of representative mini-review of the entire subtopic/subfield, followed by, approximately of the same length, a short review of own past and present work, coherently summarized and explained in the broader context of the first part.

b) Tutorial Review: A 15+ pages tutorial review (lecture) on a broader topic that adds significantly more introductory and background material to make this reasonably self-contained reading f

The purpose of this journal is to catalyse, foster, and disseminate an awareness and understanding of the historical  development of ideas in contemporary physics, and more generally, ideas about how Nature works.  The scope explicitly includes:Contributions addressing the history of physics and of physical ideas and concepts, the interplay of physics and mathematics as well as the natural sciences, and the history and philosophy of sciences, together with discussions of experimental ideas and designs - inasmuch as they clearly relate, and preferably add, to the understanding of modern physics.Annotated and/or contextual translations of relevant foreign-language texts.Careful characterisations of old and/or abandoned ideas including past mistakes and false leads, thereby helping working physicists to assess how compelling contemporary ideas may turn out to be in future, i.e. with hindsight.

 The scope explicitly excludes:

The publication of new results at the forefront of physics research. <
