When an APC applies
After acceptance
Authors select the applicable access route only after an editorial decision. The publication process and any charge are communicated through the associated record.
Publishing fees
Clear charges, separate editorial decisions.
Fees are stated by journal and access route. They apply only according to the conditions displayed for the relevant service or accepted article.
| Journal | Submission fee | APC for open access | Individual article | Reader subscription |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Biomedical Evidence & Translation | USD $0.00 | USD $1,250.00 | USD $39.95 | USD $39.99 / month |
| Molecular Oral Medicine | USD $0.00 | USD $1,250.00 | USD $39.95 | USD $39.99 / month |
| Clinical Data & Digital Health | USD $0.00 | USD $1,250.00 | USD $39.95 | USD $39.99 / month |
A submission fee of USD $0.00 means the journal does not charge for editorial consideration. An APC, where offered, is considered only after editorial acceptance. Payment, membership, institutional access and commercial services do not affect peer review or editorial decisions.
What charges do not do
No editorial influence
Fees do not buy acceptance, accelerated peer review, reviewer recommendations or a particular editorial outcome.
Reader access
More than one route
Availability may be through open access, institutional subscription or individual article purchase, as shown on the article record.
Biomedical Evidence & Translation
Waivers may be requested before acceptance for documented financial need. Editorial decisions are independent of payment.
Molecular Oral Medicine
Waivers may be requested before acceptance for documented financial need. Editorial decisions are independent of payment.
Clinical Data & Digital Health
Waivers may be requested before acceptance for documented financial need. Editorial decisions are independent of payment.
Submission administration
Disclosed before submission
Where a journal applies a submission fee, it is disclosed before a manuscript is submitted and relates to initial editorial administration. It never determines evaluation, review or a decision.
Open-access publication
Confirmed after acceptance
An APC applies only to the accepted open-access route. The relevant account record confirms any publication and production requirements before payment is requested.
Reader purchase
Access described on the record
An individual article price or subscription applies only to the reader-access route stated on that article record.
