Instructions for Authors
General Information: Dose-Response, formerly Nonlinearity in Biology, Toxicology, and Medicine, is a quarterly peer-reviewed electronic journal devoted
to the publication of original findings on the occurrence of nonlinear dose-response relationships across a broad range of biological disciplines including
physiology, biochemistry, molecular biology, toxicology, radiation biology, pharmacology, medicine, experimental psychology, plant biology,
as well as environmental and related sciences. In addition to descriptive experimental findings of nonlinear dose responses,
particular interest will focus on experimental evidence providing a mechanistic understanding of nonlinear dose-response relationships.
The journal also welcomes the submission of biologically motivated statistical modeling of nonlinear dose-response relationships.
While the emphasis of the journal is on the publication of experimental findings, population-based epidemiological
studies relating to nonlinearity are encouraged. In addition, the journal encourages submittal of mini-reviews on topics at the forefront of
research interest. Finally, the journal is interested in receiving manuscripts that apply the concept of nonlinearity to current developments
in drug and chemical testing procedures and in environmental, occupational, and medical risk assessment.
