New APC Discount & Waiver Policies Announced for 2025
We’re excited to introduce two key initiatives to support equitable publishing:
50% APC Discount for authors affiliated with institutions in UN-recognized Least Developed Countries (LDCs). All co-authors must be based in LDCs, and valid institutional proof is required.
100% APC Waiver for research papers submitted in 2025 where the corresponding author is ranked among the world’s top 2% most cited scientists (as per Stanford/Elsevier or equivalent). Supporting documentation must be submitted at the time of submission.
Authors should indicate their eligibility during manuscript submission. For full details, contact the editorial office.
