New version of publBio launched

The new version of the IUCr's free tool publBio makes it even easier to write and submit articles to Acta Crystallographica Section F: Structural Biology and Crystallization Communications.

The publBio online editor provides a structured but flexible template, taking out much of the work of writing an article from scratch. For example, publBio uses your data source (if available) to populate the template with as much information as possible, and the tables provide a guide to the sort of data expected for a concise structure or crystallization report.
