Article Processing Charges (APC)
The MedSciens Journal of Pediatric Neurology (MSJPN) is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal dedicated to advancing innovations and discoveries in child neurology, pediatric neurosurgery, neuroradiology, neuro/head & neck imaging, child psychiatry, and pediatric neuroscience. As a vital platform for research scholars, scientists, and professionals worldwide, MSJPN publishes timely clinical and research articles on all aspects of the developing nervous system, from neurologic disorders to translational neuroscience. By emphasizing quick publication with rigorous peer review, the journal ensures credibility, efficient dissemination, and reduced redundancy in pediatric neurologic research, fostering interdisciplinary discussions on new issues and best practices for patient safety. Our open-access model provides unrestricted access to readers, promoting a global community of experts and accelerating breakthroughs in pediatric neurology without barriers. All manuscripts undergo comprehensive peer review by expert editorial board members, upholding integrity, quality, and relevance in child neurology.
Our Article Processing Charge (APC) of $1,150 is crafted to support MSJPN's mission of pediatric neurologic excellence and rapid dissemination. 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 clinical applications and child health studies. Authors publishing in MSJPN benefit from enhanced visibility in pediatric neurology databases, increased citation potential, and opportunities to influence treatment protocols, neurosurgical innovations, and patient care in child psychiatry and neuroscience. We welcome submissions of editorials, original research, review articles, case reports, and perspectives, all reviewed to elevate scholarly standards and community progress in pediatric neurology.
To promote equitable contributions to pediatric neurologic research, MSJPN 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 MSJPN positions you at the forefront of pediatric neurology innovation, where your work can improve nervous system care, enhance child psychiatry outcomes, and advance neuroscience for young patients. With no submission fees and flexible payment options like credit cards or institutional transfers, the process is efficient.
