Give your research a second chance
Sound science matters
Being published is not just challenging, but very competitive. When you submit to a journal, if your research doesn’t meet the expected scope or high quality level, even after being accepted for peer review, you may find your research rejected. It’s frustrating, we know. You’ve spent hours undertaking your research and making it ready for submission.
We're making things easier.
Publishing with a trusted open access publisher means your research stands the test of time. Our processes and output are built around publishing solid sound science to progress communities and inspire positive change. Health and medical professionals worldwide publish and devote their time through our editorial and advisory boards to ensure we give your research the recognition it deserves. We’re one of the first open access publishers, bringing important science to the community since 1999, and now with over 30 journals to choose from.
Submit your rejected paper to us
We’re always experimenting, finding the best ways to support the health and medical research community. That’s why you can now submit your good quality rejected manuscript with portable peer review, with all your peer reviews and editorial comments included. This doesn’t mean that we won’t undertake our usual quality editorial checks as part of our consideration, but it does help to speed up the process and may mean it does not need to go out for additional peer review.
