Manuscript submission, revision and acceptance process

Once you have completed all the pre-submission tasks, you should be ready to make a submission to a journal.

Due to the high rejection rate, you may have to make submissions to more than one journal before your manuscript is finally accepted. All journal submissions entail multiple rounds of submission prior to final acceptance.

Here we detail the main parts of the submission process:

• What preprints are and why you may wish to submit one
• We explain the peer review process
• How to write the correspondence associated with your submission
• What you need to do at acceptance
