Submit a Manuscript
Manuscripts for the Journal of Embryology are submitted through one of three routes. Choose the route that suits you, and use only that route for the manuscript.
How to submit
Each route reaches the same editorial office and the same review process.
ManuscriptZone Primary route
The journal’s manuscript-handling system, where submission, review and decisions are managed.
Simple manuscript submission form Alternative route
A single online form with the Journal of Embryology already selected.
Editorial email Assisted route
For authors who cannot use either online route, write to the editorial office.
Authors must use only one submission route for the same manuscript.
Submission checklist
JE accepts eight article types:
- Original Research
- Review
- Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
- Methods
- Short Communication
- Case Report
- Commentary
- Letter
- The work fits the Aims and Scope and is one of the journal’s accepted article types, each described in the Instructions for Authors.
- The manuscript follows the Instructions for Authors.
- Ethics approvals, consent and permits that apply to the work are reported in the manuscript.
- A data-availability statement is included for empirical research.
- Interventional clinical trials report their registry name, number and date.
- Authors, affiliations, ORCID iDs where available, funding and competing interests are declared.
- Any use of generative AI in preparing the manuscript is disclosed.
- Permission is in hand for any third-party material whose existing license does not already allow the reuse, and every source is credited.
What happens next
The editorial office checks the submission for completeness.
All submissions undergo initial editorial screening.
Manuscripts that proceed are sent for independent peer review. Single-blind by default; double-blind review is available on request.
The editors reach a decision based on the reviewers’ reports and the journal’s criteria.
Editorial decisions are based on scope, scientific quality, methodological rigor, ethical compliance, reporting quality, and relevance to the journal. The article processing charge of USD 1,200 is payable only after acceptance; withdrawal after submission is subject to the journal’s withdrawal policy.
