How are manuscripts reviewed and processed?
When a manuscript is received by an editor, he/she will have it reviewed by at least two peers qualified to evaluate the manuscript and he/she normally asks the reviewers to complete the review in one month. Once the review and/or revision of the ms is completed, the responsible editor will then either reject or accept the manuscript. If the manuscript is accepted, he will forward files in the required format to the Chief Editor (Dr Zhang) for processing. Dr Zhang, with support of editorial staff, will then work with the author and the publisher/printer to ensure that the manuscript will be published within one month or so (although long manuscript may take longer).
