Submit a manuscript
To submit a new manuscript, log in to the "Main Menu" and click 'Submit Article'. Here you can submit all the data that comprises your manuscript - text files, images and descriptions.

Peer Review
All submitted articles are reviewed by up to three peer reviewers considered familiar with the specific subject matter, including at least one member of the journal’s Editorial Board. When necessary, articles may receive additional review to ensure accuracy and usefulness. All articles are sent to our reviewers blinded—that is, with the author’s name and credentials deleted, so that the reviewer doesn't know who is authoring the work. We do this because we think we get a more fair and even-handed review of the article based on its merit. Questions about reviews should be addressed to the managing editor.
