Submission pathway
Two-file upload requirement: authors submit one full manuscript with all author details and one fully anonymized manuscript for peer review. Either file may be Microsoft Word (.doc or .docx) or PDF (.pdf).
- Scope check: confirm that the work fits veterinary or animal sciences and has a clear scholarly contribution.
- Prepare files: one full manuscript containing all author details and declarations, plus one complete blinded manuscript for reviewers.
- Submit online: authors create an account, upload files, enter metadata, and confirm declarations in the online portal.
- Editorial screening: completeness, ethics, similarity, language, and fit are assessed before double-blind peer review.
- Peer review: independent experts assess originality, methods, interpretation, and relevance without author identity shown in the review file.
- Decision and revision: authors respond to reviewer and editor comments with tracked revisions and a response letter.
- Production: accepted manuscripts are copyedited, proofed, assigned metadata, and published open access.
