Verify ORCID iDEditorial screening and independent peer review
Every submission undergoes initial editorial screening. Manuscripts that pass screening are assessed by independent peer reviewers. The model is single-blind (double-blind on request).
Editorial decisions rest on scientific merit alone. They are independent of any article processing charge, membership or role — payment plays no part in whether a manuscript is reviewed or accepted, and editors recuse themselves from decisions on their own work.
