Initial Checks

All submitted manuscripts will be checked to determine whether they follow the journal guidelines and ethical policies. Improperly prepared manuscripts will be returned to the authors for changes and resubmission.

Assignment of Reviewers

The Editor-in-Chief will determine the compliance of the manuscript with the scope of the journal and the significant contribution that it will add to the scientific community. Passed manuscripts from the initial checks will be assigned, by the Associate Editors, to at least two independent experts for peer-review with a maximum period of three weeks. A single-blind review will be applied and the peer-reviewed comments are confidential.

Editorial Intern Decision

Based on feedback and comments from the peer-reviewers, Editor-in-Chief will make the judgment to accept, ask for revision or reject the manuscript in consultation with the Associate Editor in charge of handling the reviewing process. For Minor Revision, the authors will have to resubmit the precisely revised manuscript within a maximum of one week. For Major Revisions authors will have four weeks to submit their revised manuscript. Response to reviewers’ comments should be in a point-by-point fashion. Authors may contact the Editor-in-Chief for extra time when necessary.

Editorial Final Decision

Editor-in-Chief will check for the compliance of authors’ response to the reviewers’ recommendations and determine the final decision.
