“Lomonosov Journal of Anthropology (Vestnik Moskovskogo Universiteta. Seria XXIII. Antropologia, Moscow University Anthropology Bulletin)” is a peer-reviewed journal founded in 2008. The journal publishes original articles of a theoretical and research nature with an emphasis on covering various problems of anthropology (biological anthropology; human populations; auxology; human morphology; human evolution; paleoanthropology; anthropogenetics) and related interdisciplinary research. Anthropology is an interdisciplinary science therefore the journal publishes scientific articles that are combined in Russian science into the following groups of specialties: general biology and physiology in biological sciences, historical sciences and archaeology.
In the first place, the journal provides opportunities for the publication of unique data reflecting the regional patterns of the somatic development in Russian population of different age categories, the results of screening of urban and rural groups, modern indigenous and migrant populations living in various environmental conditions. This is important for further studies on adaptability of Russian population to the current environment. Due to its particular interests, the journal takes some special place among other Russian scientific periodicals.
The journal also provides an opportunity for professional communication to a wide range of specialists whose works cover a range of related problems. The main content of the publication consists of original scientific articles, scientific reviews, article reviews, as well as a chronicle of scientific life, information about conferences, symposiums and seminars, criticism and bibliography.

5.4.2. Sections
The text should be well structured and divided into the following sections: Introduction, Materials and Methods, Results, Discussion, Conclusion (and/or Conclusions). Each of the sections should be provided with its own heading.
Scientific context (Introduction) – it is recommended to indicate the broader problem with which the research is connected in a brief preamble. The preamble helps the reader to understand what topic the article is about and decide whether to continue reading. The preamble is not equivalent to an analytical Bibliography review, which follows after brief introductory words, can be provided with a separate substantive title and ends with the formulation of the purpose of the study.
The section "Materials and methods" is highlighted: a description of the sample, schemes, research methods (a bibliographic link to the source with a description of the methodology is required), methods of data analysis (mathematical and statistical methods, computer programs). In the description of the Material, it is necessary to indicate the number of surveyed samples, the ethno-territorial and gender-age composition, the principles and procedure for the formation of samples (random selection or others). Instructions on compliance with the basic requirements in the field of human rights and current legislation are mandatory. The research described in the article should be carried out taking into account the requirements of bioethics, and this should be reflected in the text of the article. For example: "All materials were collected anonymously, in compliance with the rules of bioethics and signing protocols of informed consent. In accordance with the law on personal data, the data were depersonalized" or "The collection of biological material (venous blood) was carried out with the written informed consent of the subject under the supervision of the Ethical Commission of the Research Centre for Medical Genetics of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
The research of museum collections must indicate the sources of information, the names of the collection or museum and the availability of appropriate permits.
The methods used and the equipment used (including the name of the manufacturer), as well as all other procedures should be described in as much detail as possible so that there is no doubt about the reproducibility of the results. In the description of standard methods, you can specify only the appropriate source or regulation without a detailed description. In the description of the new original method, it is recommended to describe in detail the tools, manipulations, approaches, so that they can also be reproduced by other researchers. Statistical procedures (descriptive statistics, methods of multivariate analysis), statistical indicators used, their confidence limits and the degree of probability that the hypotheses being tested are correct should be described in detail, and only those used in this article should be indicated. The phrases "... generally accepted methods were used" or "... standard methods of statistical processing of results were used" are not allowed in the text of the article.
The section "Results" (facts) should be separated from the section "Discussion" (interpretation).
The main text ends with the section "Conclusion and/or Conclusions".
5.4.3. References in the text

the title of the article, if it is Russian, should be given in transliterated form and further in square brackets without punctuation marks – the title of the article translated into English,
then through a dot (not through double slash!) italics with capital letters – the name of the journal (transliterated and followed by square brackets with capital letters – translated, as defined by the publisher of the journal),
further, separated by commas – year, volume (issue), number (if there is both a volume and a number, then the number is given in parentheses, and a space before the brackets), a range of pages with the specification "pp.". If there is a DOI, then specify the DOI after the dot. At the end of the bibliographic description of the Russian-language edition, after the dot in brackets: "(In Russ.).".

The English translation of the title of the article (or monograph) and the name of the source (journal, collection, in italics) is given in square brackets.
The official translation of the titles of many articles and journals can be obtained from the database of the Scientific Electronic Library. If the journal is included in the Medline database, its abbreviated name in the English version should be given in accordance with the catalog of names of this database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed /). The translation must be professional. You can use the automatic translator with great care, editing the translated text in accordance with the scientific vocabulary in each field of science.
At the end of the bibliographic description, the digital identifier of the object (DOI) of the article, if any, is placed.
