editThe journal publishes the following types of articles: research letters, articles, reviews, and perspectives, as well as specially commissioned articles that describe emerging directions in the field of chemical biology. Letters presenting findings of broad interest are typically five printed pages or fewer, while articles are twelve printed pages or fewer. Finally, reviews cover key concepts of interest to a broad readership.[2] The journal has published the first three-dimensional interactive chemical structures replicating printed journal figures.[3]
