Your Manuscript Journey: From Submission to Publication
We believe in complete transparency. Here's exactly what happens after you click submit, with realistic timelines based on our actual performance data.
What Happens at Each Stage
Initial Screening (3 days): Our editorial team verifies that your manuscript meets basic submission requirements, checks for completeness, and performs plagiarism screening using iThenticate. Manuscripts with similarity indices above 30% are returned for revision. We also ensure your research falls within our multidisciplinary scope.
Peer Review (21 days): Your manuscript is assigned to an editor with expertise in your specific therapeutic discipline. The editor selects 2-3 expert reviewers who are active researchers in your field. Reviewers evaluate methodological rigor, scientific validity, therapeutic significance, and contribution to the field. Our multidisciplinary editorial board ensures field-appropriate evaluation.
Editorial Decision (28 days): Based on reviewer feedback, the editor makes one of four decisions: Accept (rare for first submission), Minor Revisions (most common for strong manuscripts), Major Revisions (significant improvements needed), or Reject (fundamental flaws or out of scope). You receive detailed reviewer comments and clear guidance for revisions.
Revision & Re-review (14 days): If revisions are requested, you'll have time to address reviewer concerns. Submit your revised manuscript with a point-by-point response to reviewer comments. The editor or reviewers will evaluate your revisions, typically reaching a final decision within 14 days.
Production & Publication (10 days): Accepted manuscripts enter our production workflow. Our team handles copyediting, typesetting, and final formatting. You'll receive proofs for approval before publication. Once approved, your article is published online.
Pre-Submission Checklist
Ensure your manuscript is ready for submission by verifying these essential elements. A complete submission accelerates the review process and demonstrates professionalism.
Why Researchers Choose Advanced Therapeutic Science
We've built our reputation on transparency, quality, and genuine support for researchers across therapeutic disciplines. Here's what sets us apart:
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Advanced Therapeutic Science different from larger publishers?
We combine the rigor of established journals with the agility of a focused publisher. Our multidisciplinary editorial board provides expert, field-specific review across therapeutic sciences. You'll work directly with editors who understand your discipline, receive faster decisions than mega-journals, and benefit from personalized support throughout the publication process. We're indexed in major databases while maintaining the responsiveness and author focus that large publishers often lack.
How long does the peer review process take?
Our average time to first decision is 21 days from submission. Initial editorial screening takes 3 days, peer review approximately 21 days, and final editorial decision by day 28. If revisions are needed, re-review typically takes 14 days. Total time from submission to publication averages 60 days for accepted manuscripts. We track these metrics rigorously and prioritize timely decisions without compromising review quality.
What is your acceptance rate and what does it mean for my manuscript?
Our acceptance rate is 68%, reflecting our commitment to publishing quality research while maintaining rigorous standards. This means we accept approximately two-thirds of submissions after peer review and any necessary revisions. We reject manuscripts primarily for scope mismatch, fundamental methodological flaws, or insufficient novelty - not arbitrary quotas. If your research is sound and contributes meaningfully to therapeutic science, you have a strong chance of acceptance.
Do you accept manuscripts from all therapeutic disciplines?
Yes. Advanced Therapeutic Science is explicitly multidisciplinary, welcoming research from pharmacology, drug development, clinical therapeutics, biomedical engineering, molecular medicine, translational research, and related therapeutic sciences. Our editorial board spans multiple disciplines to ensure appropriate expertise for your manuscript. If your research advances therapeutic knowledge or practice, it likely fits our scope.
What reporting guidelines should I follow?
Follow discipline-specific reporting guidelines appropriate to your study design: CONSORT for randomized controlled trials, ARRIVE for animal research, PRISMA for systematic reviews, STROBE for observational studies, STARD for diagnostic accuracy studies, or CARE for case reports. These guidelines ensure methodological transparency and reproducibility. Our editorial team will verify compliance during initial screening.
Are article processing charges (APCs) required?
Yes, as an Open Access journal, we charge APCs to cover publication costs while ensuring your research remains freely accessible worldwide. However, we offer APC waivers for authors from low-income countries and case-by-case consideration for authors facing financial constraints. Quality research should never be limited by funding - contact us if cost is a barrier.
Can I suggest reviewers for my manuscript?
Yes, you may suggest potential reviewers during submission. Provide names, affiliations, and email addresses of experts in your field who are not collaborators or colleagues. While we appreciate suggestions, final reviewer selection rests with the editor to ensure independence and appropriate expertise. You may also request exclusion of specific reviewers if conflicts exist.
What happens if my manuscript is rejected?
Rejection decisions come with detailed feedback explaining the reasons. Common causes include scope mismatch, insufficient novelty, or methodological concerns. You'll receive reviewer comments to guide improvements for resubmission elsewhere or potential resubmission to us after major revisions. We aim to provide constructive feedback even in rejection, helping advance your research regardless of publication venue.
How do I track my manuscript status?
If you submit via ManuscriptZone Portal, you'll have real-time access to your manuscript status, reviewer assignments, and decision letters through your account dashboard. Quick Submission Form users receive email notifications at each stage. You can always contact our editorial office for status updates.
What file formats do you accept?
We accept manuscripts in Microsoft Word (.doc, .docx) or LaTeX formats. Figures should be submitted as high-resolution TIFF or EPS files (300 DPI minimum). Tables can be embedded in the manuscript or submitted as separate Excel files. Supplementary materials can be in various formats (PDF, video, datasets) depending on content type.
