As decided at the 2015 board meeting, JIPB will change its manuscript management system from Bench>Press to ScholarOne. From January 15, 2016, all new manuscripts should be submitted directly to ScholarOne at https://mc03.manuscriptcentral.com/jipb, and at the mean time manuscripts submitted before this date will still be handled in Bench>Press (http://submit-jipb.net). From May 30, 2016, onwards, the Bench>Press system will be closed completely. If you have any problems, please do not hesitate to get in touch with us (jipb@ibcas.ac.cn)
