The Phycologist

What is it?

With a distribution to over 400 members and to other researchers at international meetings, The Phycologist is an important forum through which the BPS can communicate to members and in which members can raise issues, request information, publicise phycological activities and research, in an informal format.

All types of relevant material will be considered, these include job advertisements, scientific reports, book reviews, news items of topical interest, meeting announcements, grant awards, research news, promotions, appointments, profiles of eminent phycologists and obituaries. If you are interested in submitting material that does not fall within any of these broad categories, or you are unsure of the appropriateness of a potential article, then contact the editor. Suggestions for future articles or a series of articles are also welcomed.

Submission of Copy

Copy which is submitted for publication in ‘The Phycologist’ should be concise and informative. Articles must be scientifically sound, as jargon free as possible and written in a readable scientific magazine style. Unless absolutely essential, references should not be included.

Illustrations and photos to accompany copy should be supplied as JPEG or TIFF file no less than 600 dpi resolution.  Images to be considered for the front cover are also welcomed.
