Author Guidelines
Instructions for Authors
1. Submit Online
Submit your manuscript through the journal’s online submission system. New users may create an account and follow the guided steps. The corresponding author should confirm that all authors have approved the submission.
2. Accepted File Formats
Manuscripts may be prepared in Microsoft Word (.doc or .docx) or LaTeX. Use the relevant template where practical. To simplify submission, authors may upload the manuscript first; final editable source files can be sent by email after acceptance if requested by the production team.
3. Article Types
- Original research articles
- Review articles
- Short communications
- Technical notes
- Case studies within the journal’s scope
4. Manuscript Structure
Use a clear title and provide the full names, affiliations, corresponding-author email and ORCID iDs where available. A research article should normally include an abstract of up to 250 words, 4–6 keywords, introduction, methods, results, discussion, conclusions, acknowledgements or funding information where applicable, declarations, and references.
5. Figures, Tables and Equations
Number figures, tables and displayed equations consecutively and cite them in the text. Provide clear captions, define symbols and abbreviations, and obtain permission for reused copyrighted material.
6. References
Cite references numerically in square brackets and list them in order of first citation. Include DOI links whenever available and verify every reference before submission.
7. Ethics and Declarations
Research involving humans or animals must include the relevant approval and consent information. Disclose funding and any material competing interests when applicable; if there are none, a brief “No competing interests” statement is sufficient. This declaration is not intended to make submission difficult and may be finalized during editorial processing. Describe data availability where relevant. Any substantive use of generative AI in preparing the manuscript must be disclosed; AI tools cannot be listed as authors.
8. Review, Revision and Proofs
Suitable submissions undergo double-anonymous peer review. When revising, upload a clean manuscript and a point-by-point response. After acceptance, the corresponding author will receive proofs and should return essential corrections promptly.
9. Fees and Help
There is no submission or peer-review fee. The article processing charge is USD 100 and is requested only after acceptance. For assistance, contact editor@sciencepubco.com.
