Review policies
Polymers in Medicine applies double-blind peer review. All submissions undergo initial editorial screening and may be rejected prior to peer review (desk rejection). Manuscripts sent for review are evaluated by at least two independent expert reviewers via the Editorial System.
Editorial decisions are based on reviewer reports and editorial assessment. The Editors may accept the manuscript, request revision, or reject it. Final publication decisions are made by the Editors/Editorial Board.
When revision is requested, authors must provide a revised manuscript with changes clearly indicated and a point-by-point response to reviewer comments.
Authors are required to suggest three potential reviewers during submission; however, the journal is not obliged to invite suggested reviewers.
Reviewers must declare conflicts of interest, maintain confidentiality, and provide objective, constructive assessments. Confidential manuscript content must not be shared with third parties or uploaded to generative AI tools.
