BMC  Peer review policy for journals published by BioMed Central

For peer review policy please select the journal you are interested in from the drop-down menu and then click the link.


 

  • All journals published by BioMed Central operate a system of peer review for their research articles and for most other article types.


  • The precise form of peer review is left to those responsible for editorial control of the journal. In some cases, including all the medical BMC journals, reviewers are asked to sign their reviews and the pre-publication history of each paper (submitted versions, reviewers' reports, authors' responses) is posted on the web with the published article.


  • BioMed Central's journals use an electronic submission and peer review process designed to facilitate rapid peer review.


  • BioMed Central is a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE). For more information, visit www.publicationethics.org.uk.


  • BioMed Central endorses the World Association of Medical Editors (WAME) Policy Statement on Geopolitical Intrusion on Editorial Decisions.

 

Note

Reviewers preparing reports on articles to be published in BMC Proceedings should not return reports to BioMed Central, but should submit these to the organising group for the proceedings. Any queries regarding reviews for BMC Proceedings can be directed to BioMed Central by email: supplements@biomedcentral.com.
