Express Track Submission
For time-sensitive manuscripts, Gender Medicine offers this optional service for a nominal fee of $2000. High quality peer review is completed in 2 weeks and comments are provided to the author within 3 days of their receipt by the editorial office. Authors are asked to submit a revised manuscript within 2 weeks. Accepted manuscripts are processed within 3-4 weeks, published online within 2 business days of final author approval, and in print in the next available issue.
If you would like to use Express Track, please request this service in your cover letter. On sending your submission, please fax a completed Express Track Payment form. We must receive this form before we can proceed with peer review. To cover the cost incurred for expedited review, you will be charged one fourth ($500) of the fee on receipt of your submission. If your paper is rejected, there will be no further charges; however, if it is accepted, the remainder of the fee is assessed on publication.
