Correspondence
If you would like to submit comments, questions, or criticisms about an article published in Cell Stress, please e-mail our Executive Editors directly. Note, that Editors, however, have the prerogative to reject correspondence that is irrelevant, uninteresting, or lacking cogency, and will make an effort to screen discourteous, inaccurate, or libellous comments, but they are also aware of their responsibility to allow a range of opinions to be expressed and to promote debate. The authors of articles discussed in such correspondence have a responsibility to respond to substantial criticisms of their work using those same mechanisms and will be asked by the Executive Editors to respond. Authors of correspondence will be asked to declare any competing or conflicting interests. Correspondence may be edited for length, grammatical correctness, and journal style and published as a commentary article. >> Back to top
