Peer review policy

All submitting manuscripts to Basrah journal of Science are first reviewed for completeness and only then sent to be assessed by an Editor who will decide whether they are suitable for peer review or no. Editors will consider the peer-reviewed reports when making a decision, but are not bound by the opinions or recommendations therein. A concern raised by a single peer reviewer or the Editor themself may result in the manuscript being rejected. Authors receive peer review reports with the editorial decision on their manuscript.
