Following up on invited contributions, the submission of timely original papers and pertinent reviews is advertised as an “Open Call”. The guest editor together with the editor-in-chief supervises the peer review process and renders the final decision on each submission. Accepted papers will appear immediately on-line in a regular issue of Basic Research in Cardiology and, in addition, will be compiled in a separate on-line presentation of the topical collection.
