Review Processes

 III.I On Neuropedia.net, there is just one anonymous review process. All submissions will be reviewed by the Chief Editor to ensure that they are appropriate for publication on the website.

Papers that are considered eligible are typically sent to an authorized expert Editor who evaluates the paper’s scientific quality. The Chief Editor is responsible for making the final decision on whether or not an article should be accepted or rejected. The decision of the Chief Editor is final.

When everything is completed, make a preliminary decision using the following options:

• • • • Reject if there are major doubts regarding originality, relevance, methodology, validity, or overall quality 
      • Major revisions are required- the document isn’t good enough as it is; recommendations for improvement are made, and a second review will be required
      • Minor Revisions are required – the manuscript is likely acceptable, but more work is required.
      • Accepted – the article will proceed for Publication.

III.II If a revision is requested, you will receive a copy of the Chief Editor’s and Editor’s comments and be asked to submit a newly updated manuscript entitled (Revised *Manuscript title*). It’s possible that more rounds of peer review and revisions will be required.

The manuscript is forwarded to production after it has been accepted. This process normally takes three weeks to complete and Within one to three weeks, it will be shared on the Neuropedia.net social media platforms.
