JOURNAL POLICIES
Duplicate Publication
Manuscripts are reviewed for possible publication with the understanding that they are being submitted only to the Science of Traditional Chinese Medicine and have not been published, simultaneously submitted, or already accepted for publication elsewhere. The Editorial team may subject any manuscript submitted for consideration of publication in the Science of Traditional Chinese Medicine to plagiarism-detection software.
This does not preclude consideration of a manuscript that has been rejected by another journal or a complete report that follows publication of preliminary findings elsewhere, usually in the form of an abstract. Copies of any possibly duplicate published material should be submitted with the manuscript under consideration, with a statement in the cover letter as to why the manuscript currently being submitted is not a duplicate publication.
