Article Processing Charges (APC)
The Journal of Dermatology and Venereology-Research and Therapy (JDVRT) is an international, open-access, peer-reviewed journal dedicated to advancing knowledge in dermatology and venereology. As a premier forum for clinicians, researchers, and professionals worldwide, JDVRT facilitates the dissemination of cutting-edge information on all aspects of skin disorders, including epidemiology, etiology, diagnosis, treatment, and management. By publishing original articles, review articles, short reports, research letters, editorials, commentaries, and historical perspectives, the journal promotes academic communications and scientifically proven research aimed at improving patient outcomes and maintaining skin health. Our commitment to open access ensures unrestricted access to readers, fostering a global scientific community and accelerating innovations in dermatological care without barriers. All manuscripts undergo rigorous peer review by expert editorial board members, upholding the highest standards of quality and relevance in the field.
Our Article Processing Charge (APC) of $1,150 is designed to support JDVRT's mission of excellence in dermatological research. This fee covers essential services such as expert peer review, professional editing and formatting, and seamless online dissemination through advanced digital platforms. It also includes investments in hardware, software, and long-term digital preservation in secure repositories, guaranteeing your research's accessibility for future education and practice. Authors publishing in JDVRT benefit from enhanced visibility in dermatology databases, increased citation potential, and opportunities to influence clinical guidelines and skin health therapies. We welcome a diverse range of submissions, all reviewed to elevate scholarly integrity and community advancement in venereology and dermatology.
To promote inclusive contributions to skin disorder research, JDVRT adheres to a comprehensive Waiver Policy. We recognize that funding availability can vary significantly, so we offer substantial waivers for deserving authors whose institutions lack financial support or for those from low-income economies. These waivers, whether partial or full, are evaluated on a case-by-case basis to promote inclusivity and encourage global contributions. Requests must be submitted to the journal before manuscript submission to ensure fair consideration. This policy underscores our commitment to accessibility, allowing talented researchers to publish without financial hurdles.
Additionally, our Withdrawal Policy ensures transparency and fairness in the publication process. Authors may withdraw their article before the plagiarism check at no cost. However, if withdrawal occurs after the plagiarism check (within 24 hours) and formatting, a fee of $189 applies. For manuscripts that have undergone peer review and are prepared for publication, the fee increases to $459. Once an article is published, the withdrawal fee is $549. These charges reflect the resources invested in the process and align with our open-access model, where fees are non-refundable upon payment to cover editorial, review, and dissemination costs.
Publishing with JDVRT empowers you to lead advancements in dermatology and venereology, where your research can directly enhance skin health, patient care, and therapeutic outcomes.
