How review works
Manuscripts are screened within five working days, then sent to at least two independent reviewers who never learn the authors’ identities, and vice versa. First decisions average 3-4 weeks.
Every stage is visible from your Open Journal Systems dashboard, so you never have to email an editor to ask where a manuscript stands.
Editorial board
Our editors handle submissions in their own areas of expertise and declare conflicts of interest before any manuscript is assigned. Click any profile to view full qualifications and research.
