Our web submission system, Manuscript Central by ScholarOne, has been in operation since September 1, 2006. The present issue of Microscopy and Microanalysis contains the first paper to appear in print after traversing this system electronically (see the paper by Fuseler et al.). The time elapsed from submission to print publication was under seven months. This is a significant improvement over the old paper-based methods where a manuscript often took more than a year to appear in print.
Please consider submitting your full-length manuscript to our website:

The submission process is simple. Once you are at the website, follow the instructions for creating an account and submitting your paper. All manuscripts are peer-reviewed under the guidance of one of our editors. A significant advantage for Microscopy and Microanalysis is that color images and video film clips are published free of charge in the online version of the paper.
