Journal Submission

Manuscript Submission Assistance streamlines your journal submission process. We create a pre-submission checklist based on your target journal's requirements and provide all necessary forms. Our experts ensure your manuscript adheres to the journal's formatting guidelines. We compile all required documents into a consolidated PDF for your approval and complete the submission once approved, providing a detailed report with submission details.

1. Please upload your research manuscript (including images, tables, and charts) when you place the order. If you are ordering Journal Submission Service as a stand-along service, please submit an edited and formatted manuscript. 
2. The title and URL of your target journal, with link to its submission guidelines. 

The corresponding author is the point of contact for your research paper and is responsible for responding to all requests from the journal during the submission process.  After the paper is published, the corresponding author may also receive correspondences from readers. The corresponding author could be a different person from the first author, but is generally the lead researcher.

Whether a running title, running head, or short title is necessary for manuscript submission depends on the specific guidelines of the journal or publication to which you are submitting your manuscript. Different journals have their own formatting and style requirements, and these can vary widely. Always refer to the target journal's author guidelines to determine if a running title is required.

"Resubmission Invited" means the journal sees potential in your manuscript but requires revisions. Review the reviewers' comments, revise your manuscript accordingly, and prepare a detailed response to each comment before resubmitting for further consideration.

As part of our after-sales support for Journal Submission Service, we regularly check the status of your submitted manuscript and provide timely updates to keep you informed throughout the publication process.

Keep your ORCiD and password handy because you can use the same ID for multiple journals.
