Life Sciences is an international weekly journal publishing reports on research in biomedical areas. Articles are encouraged that emphasize the molecular, cellular and functional aspects of Cardiovascular & Autonomic Mechanisms; Drug Metabolism; Endocrinology; Growth Factors and Neoplasia; Immunology; Neuroscience and Toxicology. The Journal publishes original research rapidly. Although full-length manuscripts are favored, shorter submissions are also considered. These shorter articles must be of the same high quality as full-length articles, and should contain information from topical and fast-moving fields in order to merit more rapid communication. Mini-reviews on topics of wide interest to investigators in the life sciences are also published. All articles are rigorously reviewed. The Journal favors publication of papers where modern scientific technologies are used to explain molecular, cellular and physiological mechanisms. Articles that merely report observations are rarely accepted. Recommendations from the Declaration of Helsinki or NIH guidelines for care and use of laboratory animals must be adhered to. Articles should be written at a level accessible to readers who are non-specialists in the topic of the article themselves, but who are interested in the research.

《生命科學》是一份國際周刊，出版生物醫學領域的研究報告。鼓勵強調心血管和自主機制的分子、細胞和功能方面的文章;藥物代謝;內分泌學;生長因子與腫瘤;免疫學;神經學和毒理學。該雜志迅速發表原創研究。雖然全篇幅的稿件更受歡迎，但也可以考慮提交較短的稿件。這些較短的文章必須與完整的文章具有相同的高質量，并且應該包含來自主題和快速移動領域的信息，以便進行更快速的交流。對生命科學研究人員廣泛感興趣的主題也發表了小型評論。所有文章都經過嚴格審查。該雜志傾向于發表現代科學技術用于解釋分子、細胞和生理機制的論文。僅僅報告觀察結果的文章很少被接受。必須遵守《赫爾辛基宣言》或國家衛生研究院關于護理和使用實驗室動物的指導方針的建議。文章應該寫在對文章主題本身不是專家，但對研究感興趣的讀者能夠理解的水平上。
