About the Journal

Chemical Senses publishes original research and review papers on all aspects of chemoreception in both humans and animals. An important part of the journal's coverage is devoted to techniques and the development and application of new methods for investigating chemoreception and chemosensory structures.

Continuous Publication Model

Chemical Senses uses a continuous publication model. This means that articles are published online as soon as they have completed the production process, meaning researchers can access and cite the content faster than ever.

For authors

This means corrected proofs are immediately published into the issue with no more waiting in an Advance Access list. This also means that article indexing information is sent to abstracting and indexing databases on first publication and when the issue closes at the end of the year.

For readers

This means a simpler reading experience for you. All articles are available in one version, one location, and citable in one way.
