Review Process:

The journal is an open access blind peer-reviewed journal and therefore, both the reviewer and the author identities are concealed from the reviewers, and vice versa, throughout the review process. This ensures that the research is judged fairly, keeping bias out of equation. On the other hand, both, the authors as well as the reviewers are protected against criticism.
