GUIDELINES FOR PJBMB COVER DESIGN CONTEST
The Philippine Society of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (PSBMB) will be re-issuing its journal under the new name Philippine Journal of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (PJBMB), formerly The Bulletin of Philippine Biochemical Society (PBS). It will be published bi-annually, including a release of a special issue. The society aims to launch the scientific journal on November at the PSBMB Annual Convention; therefore we are calling out for people who can design our cover layout for the PJBMB scientific journal. The submission is not limited to scientific majors; anyone who can create a cover layout is qualified to join the contest. A cash prize will be given to the winner of the contest. To submit your design, simply follow the guidelines enumerated below.
Layout Making. Draft the cover layout for the PJBMB scientific journal. The design should not be too much nor too lacking, and should be quickly identified as a cover layout for a scientific journal. Pictures, illustrations, etc. can be included only if it’s your own; those from the internet should not be used.
Submission. Submit your cover layout design in JPEG/PNG format to the Editor-in-Chief through email. Note that the resolution/quality of the image should be good to show even the tiniest details of the layout. The design can be directed to this email: fmheralde@gmail.com
