        Instructions to Authors


Wiley's Journal Styles and EndNote
<http://interscience.wiley.com/jpages/bonus/end_note_promo.html>


            Manuscript Submission

Manuscripts should be submitted via the journal?s online system. To
submit your manuscript, please go to http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/gcc
and follow the step-by-step instructions. Submission implies that all
coauthors have approved the content of the manuscript and its submission
by the corresponding author, and that the corresponding author is
authorized to represent all coauthors. The corresponding author for
editorial purposes need not be the senior author, nor the person to whom
correspondence is addressed after publication.

Professor Felix Mitelman will manage peer-review for Research and
Perspective articles while Dr. Janet D. Rowley will manage peer-reivew
for Review articles. Presubmission enquiries can be sent to Prof.
Mitelman ( felix.mitelman@med.lu.se ) or Dr. Rowley (
jrowley@medicine.bsd.uchicago.edu ), as appropriate.

Manuscripts must be prepared on 8 1/2 x 11 inch or A4 white bond paper,
in a double-spaced format with wide (1 inch) margins.


All manuscripts submitted to /Genes, Chromosomes & Cancer/ must be
submitted solely to this journal and may not have been published in
another publication of any type, professional or lay. Upon acceptance of
a manuscript for publication, the author will be requested to sign an
agreement transferring copyright to the publisher, who reserves
copyright. No published material may be reproduced or published
elsewhere without the written permission of the publisher and the
author. The Journal will not be responsible for the loss of manuscripts
at any time. All statements in, or omissions from, published manuscripts
are the responsibility of the authors, who will assist the editorial
office by reviewing proofs before publication. Reprint order forms will
be sent with the proofs.


            Manuscript Preparation

/Review Articles/ review a specific field through an appropriate
literature survey. An Abstract is required. Materials and Methods and
Results sections are not required. Although there are no restrictions on
the number of pages or figures, the Review should be as concise as
possible. Review articles are usually invited; the editors welcome
proposals and suggestions for topics.

/Research Articles/ should report original data and contain sections in
the following order: Title Page, Abstract, Introduction, Materials and
Methods, Results, Discussion, Acknowledgments (optional), References,
Tables, and Figure Legends. Use generic names of drugs and give
manufacturer, city, and state or country of all trademarked equipment
mentioned in the text.

/Letters to the Editors/ comment on a work recently published in the
journal. These should be kept brief, in general not longer than one
printed page, but may be illustrated. No abstract is required. Authors
of the work commented on will be invited to reply in the same issue of
the Journal.

/Perspective Articles/ are intended to shed light on general topics in
cancer genetics in a manner different from that normally found in
Research Articles and Review Articles. They should be provocative and
juxtapose lines of reasoning that are conventionally seen as separate,
to achieve a deeper understanding of the problems discussed. Perspective
Articles are usually invited; the editors welcome proposals and
suggestions for topics. An abstract is required.


            Format of Manuscript Elements Please note: This journal does
            not accept Microsoft WORD 2007 documents at this time.
            Please use WORD?s ?Save As? option to save your document as
            an older (.doc) file type.

*Title Page.* Give a descriptive title with no abbreviations. Provide
first and last names of each author and department and institutional
affiliations. Give full address of corresponding author and telephone,
telex, and FAX numbers and an abbreviated title not to exceed 45
characters. Avoid nonstandard abbreviations; do not abbreviate single
words (see "Conventions and Nomenclature").

*Abstract.* Limit the abstract to a single paragraph of not more that
250 words. It must describe work and include purpose, brief statement of
methods, and results. Literature references should not be given in the
Abstract. Definitions of abbreviations (see "Conventions and
Nomenclature") must be repeated when the abbreviation is used for the
first time in the text.

*Materials and Methods.* Experimental procedures should be described in
sufficient detail to enable the work to be repeated. References to other
papers describing the techniques may be given. Correct chemical names
should be given and strains of organisms, clones, etc. should be
specified. The names and addresses for suppliers of uncommon reagents or
instruments should be mentioned. Authors should draw attention to any
particular chemical or biological hazards that may be involved in
carrying out the experiments described. Any relevant safety precautions
should be described; if an accepted code of practice has been followed,
a reference to the relevant standards should be given.

*References.*

*Wiley's Journal Styles Are Now in EndNote*
EndNote is a software product that we recommend to our journal authors
to help simplify and streamline the research process. Using EndNote's
bibliographic management tools, you can search bibliographic databases,
build and organize your reference collection, and then instantly output
your bibliography in any Wiley journal style.
*Download Reference Style for this Journal:* If you already use EndNote,
you can download the reference style
<http://www.interscience.wiley.com/jendnotes> for this journal.
*How to Order:* To learn more about EndNote, or to purchase your own
copy, click here <http://www.wiley.com/trackthrough?urlcode=53026752> .
*Technical Support:* If you need assistance using EndNote, contact
endnote@isiresearchsoft.com <mailto:endnote@isiresearchsoft.com> , or
visit www.endnote.com/support <http://www.endnote.com/support> .

The accuracy of references is the responsibility of the authors. Only
published articles and those in press may be included in the reference
list. Unpublished data and submitted manuscripts, but not meeting
abstracts, must be cited parenthetically within the text. Personal
communications should also be cited within the text; permission in
writing from the communicator is required to publish the information. In
the text, references to the literature should be made by author's name
followed by year of publication arranged chronologically and then
alphabetically. When there are more than two authors, use the first
author's name and et al. When references are made to more than one paper
by the same author, published in the same year, they are to be
designated as a, b, etc.

In the reference list, references are to be arranged alphabetically
listing all authors, and then by year of publication. Journal titles
should be abbreviated according to Index Medicus; the titles of
unindexed journals should be spelled out in full. Use the following
style when preparing references.

*Journal:*
Travis JA, Sandberg AA, Neff JR, Bridge JA. 1994. Cytogenetic findings
in malignant triton tumor. Genes Chromosomes Cancer 9:1-7.

*Book Chapter:*
Gray JW, Cram LS. 1990. Flow karyotyping and chromosome sorting. In:
Melamed MR, Lindmo T, Mendelsohn ML, editors. Cytometry and sorting. New
York: John Wiley & Sons, Inc. p 503-552.

*Book:*
Helm S, Mitelman F. 1995. Cancer cytogenetics. 2nd ed. New York:
Wiley-Liss. 1223 p.

*Tables.* All tables must be cited in the text and have titles. Number
them consecutively with arabic numerals. Cite each table at the most
appropriate point in the text. Tables should present comparisons of data
that are too cumbersome to describe in the text; they should not merely
repeat text information. Each table should be typed double-spaced on a
separate sheet of paper and should include a title and, in a footnote,
definitions of all abbreviations used in it (even if abbreviations are
defined in the text), indicated by lowercase superscript letters, a, b,
c, etc.

*Figures.* Figures should be numbered in one consecutive series using
arabic numerals, and keyed into the text. All original letters, numbers,
and symbols must be large enough that, when reduced to journal format (8
1/4 x 11 inch double-column), they will remain at least 2mm high. Each
figure requires a corresponding legend; legends should be double-spaced
and grouped on a separate page(s). Each legend should describe briefly
the information presented; detailed descriptions of procedures should
appear in the Materials and Methods section. Abbreviations used in
figures and photographs must match exactly those used in the text. Upon
acceptance of color illustrations, the publisher will provide price quotes.

*Rapid Inspector ^TM * gives authors of scientific, technical, and
medical journals a resource for certifying their illustrations prior to
submission. Utilizing this software will ensure that your graphics are
suitable for print production. To download this journal's free Rapid
Inspector software, please visit http://rapidinspector.cadmus.com/wi .

*Conventions and Nomenclature.* In the description of karyotypes,
authors should follow the recommendations of the International Standing
Committee on Human Cytogenetic Nomenclature: ISCN. 1995. An
International System for Human Cytogenetic Nomenclature. F. Mitelman,
editor. S. Karger, Basel, 1995. For gene mapping nomenclature, the most
recent guidelines of the Human Gene Mapping Nomenclature Committee
should be used. Authors should use SI units and follow the guidelines
for abbreviations and symbols of the IUPAC-IUB Joint Commission on
Biochemical Nomenclature. See Eur J Biochem (1970) 15:203-208; corrected
(1972) 25:1-4. For bases in nucleic acid sequences, see Eur J Biochem
(1985) 150:1-5. All nonstandard abbreviations used in the text should be
defined when first used.

*Submission of Data to the Genetics Databases.* The editorial policy of
the journal is to encourage the use of genetics databases (e.g., HGML,
GenBank, EMBL) as repositories for detailed DNA sequences and mapping
assignments, etc. Authors are encouraged to complete data entry and
annotation forms for the appropriate databases, which can be obtained
from the databases. Include copies of these summaries and database
entries/accession information with the manuscripts at the time of
submission. Where possible, published articles will be accompanied by
footnotes with accession information for retrieving and
cross-referencing data from the genetic information repositories.
