The CSE (CBE)citation style is based on Scientific Style and Format: The CSE Manual for Authors, Editors, and Publishers, 7th edition (2006) produced by the Council of Science Editors, formally known as the Council of Biology Editors (CBE). The CSE format is often used by authors writing in the natural sciences including biology, chemistry, geology, mathematics, and physics. The CSE style uses two different citation systems: the Name-Year system and the Citation-Sequence (Superscript) system. Make sure to verify if a specific system is required when using this CSE style.

The Scientific Style and Format Eighth Edition Subcommittee worked to ensure the continued integrity of the CSE style and to provide a progressively up-to-date resource for our valued users, which will be adjusted as needed on the website. This new edition will prove to be an authoritative tool used to help keep the language and writings of the scientific community alive and thriving, whether the research is printed on paper or published online.
