Submission guidelines

Before you submit, please read the guidelines of the journal you have chosen; they are shown on the journal’s page and in the first step of the submission form. The points below apply to all journals on this site.

Preparing the manuscript

  1. Submit the manuscript as a single PDF or DOCX file. Journals with double-anonymized review also require an anonymized version without author names and affiliations.
  2. Give the full list of authors with their affiliations and email addresses. Each author may add an ORCID iD and a contribution statement based on the CRediT taxonomy.
  3. State the sources of funding, any competing interests, and where the data can be found.
  4. Disclose any use of generative AI tools in the preparation of the manuscript.

After submission

The editorial office checks each submission and assigns an academic editor, who invites reviewers. Co-authors receive an email asking them to confirm their authorship. You can follow the progress of your manuscript on the My Submissions page.
