Biomedical Optics Express is OSA's principal outlet for serving the biomedical optics community with peer-reviewed papers related to optics, photonics and imaging in the life sciences. Like its highly successful predecessor, Optics Express, Biomedical Optics Express offers rapid time-to-publication, interactive online interface and open access.
Authors benefit from:
- Rapid review, from submission to publication averaging less than 60 days and acceptance to online publication within 7 days.
- Affiliation with a leading international optics society that publishes the most-cited journals in optics.
- Content distributed broadly through major abstract/index services such as Web of Science, Google Scholar, and PubMed.
- Interactive science publishing (ISP) capability for online visualization of large datasets
- PubMed Central deposit of all BOEx articles following publication. BOEx articles assigned both PubMed and PubMed Central IDs and are fully searchable in both systems.
- Visibility within OSA's Optics InfoBase digital library and Optics ImageBank searchable graphics repository.
