   • Communications:​ The authors can use this format if they do not have enough data to submit either a mini- or full research article. However, novelty is given priority along with an interdisciplinary application discussed in detail.

   • Strategic Communications: This format is suitable for those authors who are proposing a significant solution for an existing or a novel problem. NOTE: The authors should clearly state that any further data obtained from such proposal shall be published in the future issues of TCABSE-J.

   • Technical Communications: This format is suitable for experiments done in the laboratory with proper controls testing new reagents/kits, etc. New laboratory methods can also be published with enough supporting data.

7. Reports: This format contains a maximum of 3 journal pages including text, figures, tables, references, etc. with a clear and concise title, graphical abstract, and text abstract containing no more than 150 words.

   • Application Reports: The authors can pick one problem and a novel solution for that problem rather than just the analysis of the problem.

   • Case study Reports: These are exclusively dedicated to medical and pharmacy students and faculty.

   • Structure Reports: A novel X-ray/NMR/Cryo-EM structure should be briefly described along with necessary data such as electron density maps, NMR spectra, etc.
