Biosci. 31(5), December 2006 Understanding the different manuscript statuses in the journal’s system and how long each stage typically takes can ease anxiety for authors and help them know when to contact the journal editorial office. Most journals have online submission systems, which have definitely made it easier and quicker for authors to submit their manuscripts. While each journal or publication house might use a slightly different term for each status, in general, here are the different possible statuses that the tracking system might show from submission to final acceptance or rejection: Related Q&A. How long does it take to receive the manuscript tracking number? Peer reviewers are busy scientists, and peer review is an honorary service that requires detailed scrutiny and evaluation of the manuscript. 1. All the received manuscripts corresponding to the remit of our journal are peer reviewed and appraised. 2. Authors submit the manuscript of the article issued according to "Manuscript Submission Requirements". The articles which do not meet the scientific subject area and the proper design of the journal aren't accepted to consideration. 4.3. Authors of submitted manuscripts receive from our Editorial Board a copy of peer review or substantiated refusal. If requested Editorial Board shall send copies of reviews to Minister of Education and Science of Russian Federation. 4.4. All reviews remain deposited in the editorial archive for 5 years. 4. The recommendation to the publication in the following formulations: to recommend

As a consequence, in the past fifty years, there has been a paradigm shift in our interpreting the life process. In the process, modern biology had acquired a truly interdisciplinary character in which all streams of sciences have made monumental contributions. Because of such rapid emergence as a premier subject of teaching and research; a necessity to restructure classical teachings in biology was recognised by the academics worldwide. In tune with such trends, the academic leadership of Jawaharlal Nehru University conceptualised the School of Life Sciences as an interdisciplinary research/teaching programme unifying various facets of biology while reflecting essential commonality regarding structure, function and evolution of biomolecules. The School was established in 1973 and since offering integrated teaching and research at M. Sc/ Ph.D level in various sub-disciplines in life sciences. Since inception, it remained dedicated to its core objectives and evolved to be one of the top such institutions in India and perhaps in South East Asia.

It was registered under the Societies Act in the then princely state of Mysore and the memorandum of registration was signed by the late Profs. V. Subramanian, V. N. Patwardhan and C. V. Natarajan, who were leading personalities in the scientific firmament during that period. The Society played a crucial role during the Second World War by advising the Government on the utilization of indigenous biomaterials as food substitutes, drugs and tonics, on the industrial and agricultural waste utilization and on management of water resources. The other areas of vital interest to the Society in the early years were nutrition, proteins, enzymes, applied microbiology, preventive medicines and the development of high quality proteins from indigenous plant sources.
