Ensure that your manuscript is written in clear, concise, and grammatically correct English. Submissions should be well-organized and free from language or formatting issues that could hinder comprehension. Consider the use of professional language editing services if needed. Please note that manuscripts with significant language deficiencies may be returned without being sent for peer review. Understand the journal’s copyright policy and publication agreement.
