Welcome to the JCSD's web-based Editorial Office! Our manuscript submission and review process is handled through Editorial Manager™ (EM). Authors submit manuscripts and track progress through all stages of the review process. JCSD Editorial Board members review assigned manuscripts and submit their comments and recommendations online.

to JCSD. However, if you have already submitted at least one

New authors will be asked to
provide contact information and co-author names prior to submitting the
manuscript and related files (e.g., tables, figures). Once you approve
the .PDF files comprising your submission, you have completed the
electronic manuscript submission process.
