How long did the first review take? 177****2124 No nickname 2020-03-18 Posted :: Acceptance rate: about 25% Review time: about 6 months It's really frustrating. I submitted in July 2019, got major revisions in the first review, couldn't find a reviewer for the second review, dragged on for eight months, and withdrew the submission today. Originally, I was supposed to graduate smoothly, but now I probably have to extend it. If I have another chance, I will never submit again. I heard they are losing money every year! The editing efficiency is still low! That's enough, it's all tears, maybe I'm just that unlucky child!

One of the most reputable journals in computational biology, I was very lucky to have one of my articles accepted. The reviewers were very professional and their feedback significantly improved the quality of my article. The editors were also especially nice, responding promptly to all my queries and providing support

The most recognized journal in the fields of mathematics and computational biology. Bioinformatics has a slightly different style, emphasizing biological significance more. The proportion of papers published by Chinese scholars (including co-signatories) in PCB is less than 5%. While in Bioinformatics, it is over 15%. It can be seen that the difficulty of publishing papers in PCB

Review speed: 2.0 | Submission acceptance rate: 25.0 Experience sharing: A relatively good journal in computational biology (said to have ranked second in computational biology journals in 2012). It is generally difficult to get accepted. At that time, I was not confident about submitting my paper, but with encouragement from a foreign supervisor, I decided to submit it. First is the editor's invitation and initial review (about 10 days); then comes the external review, with three reviewers participating (about one month); after making revisions based on reviewers' comments, a deadline is usually given (in my case, one reviewer agreed and two reviewers suggested additional data, giving two months for submission); the second review is usually quick (about two weeks); followed by the editor's decision phase (about 10 days); finally, you will be notified of the payment and official publication date. In addition, the journal requires authors to do their own formatting, with a lot of requirements for images and tables, and you can see many published ones

The journal in the fields of bioinformatics and computational biology is good. I have submitted 3 papers, with two accepted after review and one rejected after review. Compared to other bioinformatics journals, PCB values the refinement of biological problems and has higher requirements for the storyline. In addition, statistical requirements for methodological innovation articles are more strict
