Principle of Reserve

The articles will be reviewed under the most absolute reserve and confidentiality through double-blind peer review by external peer reviewers, who must respect the confidentiality of the manuscript. They may not publicise the contents in any way.

The Editorial Team will ask the author to eliminate from the work submitted to members of the International Scientific Committee any information allowing the author(s) to be identified.

Authors will be informed of the results of the assessment of their articles. They will receive the assessments of the peer reviewers to whom the manuscript has been sent. The identity of the peer reviewers will not be revealed.
