- Include a graphical abstract.
- Publications in Bioenergetics Communications include a title, running title, authors and affiliations, author contributions, an abstract (up to 150 words), 5−7 keywords, introduction (presenting the purpose of the publication). When presenting orignal results also include materials and methods, results, a discussion, conclusions, references, data availability statement, and acknowledgments.
