ieee-transactions-on-biomedical-engineering
Use when targeting IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering (TBME) or deciding whether a biomedical-engineering methods manuscript fits this venue. Encodes the journal's fit, the engineering-method-validated-on-biological-or-clinical-data bar, validation rigor, the TBME-vs-NBME-vs-TMI routing, house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering (ieee-transactions-on-biomedical-engineering) ## Journal positioning IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering (TBME), published by the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, is a flagship archival venue for **engineering methods applied to biology and medicine**: biosignal processing, biomedical instrumentation and devices, neural engineering, biomechanics, physiological-system modeling, and therapeutic/diagnostic technology. The defining expectation is a sound engineering contribution **validated on appropriate biomedical evidence** — measured data, phantoms, animal models, or human subjects — with a clear biomedical rationale. Pure methods with no biomedical validation, and clinical observations with no engineering contribution, are both poor fits. Siblings: `nature-biomedical-engineering` (broader significance and translational reach) and `ieee-transactions-on-medical-imaging` (imaging-specific methods). This skill is a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** tool. It does not replace the journal's current official author information. Before submitting, re-check the live IEEE TBME author guidance and submission system. #

What does the ieee-transactions-on-biomedical-engineering skill do?
Use when targeting IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering (TBME) or deciding whether a biomedical-engineering methods manuscript fits this venue. Encodes the journal's fit, the engineering-method-validated-on-biological-or-clinical-data bar, validation rigor, the TBME-vs-NBME-vs-TMI routing, house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill ieee-transactions-on-biomedical-engineering --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 909 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
