Overview
The peer review process in academic publishing is a crucial phase between manuscript submission and acceptance. It involves a technical check, an editorial board assessment of originality and relevance, and expert reviews by independent specialists. Reviewers evaluate the methodology, quality, and significance of the work, often requesting revisions. Authors must respond constructively to feedback and refine their manuscript to meet the journal’s standards. Effective communication with reviewers and editors enhances the chances of publication. The peer review process thus plays a vital role in maintaining the scholarly quality of published research.
