Journal of Life Sciences, Systems and Technologies

About Journal

Biological systems, both natural and engineered, are central to many of the world’s most pressing challenges and innovations. The convergence of life sciences with systems thinking and technological development has expanded the possibilities of research in biology, medicine, agriculture, environmental sciences, and bioengineering. The Journal of Life Sciences, Systems and Technologies has been established to provide a dedicated platform for publishing original research, reviews, and analytical perspectives that examine the structure, function, and application of biological systems across diverse domains.

This journal serves the global scientific community by encouraging the integration of biological insight with systems-level analysis and technological innovation. Researchers today are not only describing life processes but also modelling them, manipulating them, and applying them in real-world contexts through new tools and interdisciplinary approaches. Whether it is the use of biosensors in clinical diagnostics, machine learning in drug development, synthetic biology for renewable resources, or systems biology in public health, the landscape of life sciences is being redefined through technology and cross-domain thinking.

The Journal of Life Sciences, Systems and Technologies is intended for researchers, clinicians, engineers, data scientists, academic professionals, and policy advisors working at the intersections of biology, technology, and systems analysis. The journal encourages the submission of studies that explore the integration of disciplines, highlight new experimental or computational techniques, and provide insight into the organisation, dynamics, and application of living systems.

Areas of interest to the journal include the following:

• Molecular and cellular biology with a systems perspective
• Genomics, proteomics, transcriptomics, and metabolomics research
• Bioinformatics, computational biology, and data-driven life sciences
• Synthetic biology and metabolic engineering
• Biomedical technology, instrumentation, and medical devices
• Biosensor development and diagnostic innovation
• Tissue engineering and regenerative medicine
• Systems modelling in physiology, microbiology, and ecology
• Environmental biotechnology and bioremediation systems
• Agricultural biotechnology and precision farming systems
• Systems-based approaches to epidemiology and public health
• Biotechnology integration with artificial intelligence and automation
• Ethical considerations and regulatory perspectives in bio-systems innovation

The journal supports a wide range of methodologies, including experimental biology, engineering design, computational modelling, algorithm development, simulation studies, and translational research. Interdisciplinary collaboration is central to the journal’s ethos. Manuscripts that result from joint efforts between life scientists, technologists, systems engineers, and policy researchers are encouraged, especially those that contribute to understanding complex biological behaviour or lead to tangible applications in medicine, industry, or environmental management.

The journal places value on research that advances foundational knowledge as well as applied science. It supports both hypothesis-driven investigations and exploratory studies that reveal new system behaviours or emerging applications. Authors are invited to submit manuscripts that address mechanisms of system organisation, system-level responses to stimuli or interventions, and technological applications that interface directly with biological systems.

In addition to research articles, the journal also publishes literature reviews, technical notes, field studies, proof-of-concept projects, comparative analyses, and commentary on trends in systems-based life sciences. Contributions that describe failed experiments or partial success are also considered, provided that the work is methodologically sound and offers insights of relevance to other researchers in the field.

All submitted manuscripts undergo a double-blind peer review process. This ensures that the review process is impartial and that manuscripts are evaluated based on scientific merit, clarity, originality, and relevance to the journal’s scope. Reviewers are selected based on domain expertise and familiarity with the methodologies used. Constructive feedback is provided to help authors improve their work prior to publication.

The journal is open to global contributions. Authors from research institutions, universities, biotechnology companies, clinical centres, public health organisations, and government agencies are welcome to submit. Manuscripts that reflect regional perspectives or address specific environmental or population needs are encouraged. The journal seeks to support the growth of life sciences research in both developed and emerging economies, especially through contributions that involve collaborative networks or research capacity-building.

To ensure accessibility and editorial fairness, the Journal of Life Sciences, Systems and Technologies accepts submissions from authors at all stages of their careers. Early-career researchers, postdoctoral fellows, and graduate students are invited to submit manuscripts, either independently or in collaboration with senior researchers. Editorial support is available for authors who require assistance with formatting, language, or citation preparation.

The journal publishes the following types of articles:

• Original research articles
• Review articles and state-of-the-art overviews
• Technical reports and protocol papers
• Case studies and comparative analyses
• Short communications and innovation reports
• Commentary and perspective essays
• Letters to the editor

All submissions must be original, unpublished, and not under review by any other publication. Manuscripts should adhere to ethical standards for research involving human or animal subjects. Ethical clearance documents and informed consent statements must be included when applicable. Authors must also disclose any conflicts of interest and funding sources at the time of submission.

Submissions must follow the journal’s formatting and referencing guidelines. Authors should consult the Author Guidelines section for detailed instructions on manuscript structure, citation formatting, tables and figures, and supplementary files. All references cited in the text must be listed at the end of the manuscript. The journal accepts citations in APA style. Authors must ensure accuracy and consistency in referencing.

An Article Processing Charge will be levied upon acceptance of the manuscript. Authors will be notified of the applicable charge after the peer review process is completed and the manuscript is formally accepted for publication.

The Journal of Life Sciences, Systems and Technologies aims to serve as a forum for the dissemination of research that reflects both the complexity and the promise of living systems in the modern era. By connecting life science research with systems thinking and practical technologies, the journal seeks to foster a more integrated approach to discovery, design, and application in the biological sciences. It is through this integration that future solutions in health, environment, agriculture, and industry will emerge.
