Article Processing Charges
Article Processing Charge (APC):

Payment of the APC fee (directly to the publisher) by the author or a funding body is not required until AFTER the manuscript has gone through the full double-anonymized peer review process and the Editor(s)-in-Chief at his/her/their full discretion has/have decided to accept the manuscript based on the results of the double-anonymized peer review process. 

What Does IGI Global's Open Access APC Cover?

In the traditional subscription-based model, the cost to the publisher to produce each article is covered by the revenue generated by journal subscriptions. Under OA, all the articles are published under a Creative Commons (CC BY) license; therefore, the authors or funding body will pay a one-time article processing charge (APC) to offset the costs of all of the activities associated with the publication of the article manuscript, including:

  • Digital tools used to support the manuscript management and review process
  • Typesetting, formatting and layout
  • Online hosting
  • Submission of the journal's content to numerous abstracts, directories, and indexes
  • Third-party software (e.g. plagiarism checks)
  • Editorial support which includes manuscript tracking, communications, submission guideline checks, and communications with authors and reviewers
  • All promotional support and activities which include metadata distribution, press releases, promotional communications, web content, ads, fliers, brochures, postcards, etc. for the journal and its published contents
  • The fact that all published articles will be freely accessible and able to be posted and disseminated widely by
    the authors
  • Professional line-by-line English language copy editing and proofreading*

*This service is only performed on article manuscripts with fully paid (not discounted or waived) APC fees.

APC Subsidizing and Funding

To assist researchers in covering the costs of the APC in OA publishing, there are various sources of OA funding. Additionally, unlike many other publishers, IGI Global offers flexible subsidies, 100% Open Access APC funding, discounts, and more. Learn More

Reviews & Statements

Today, huge amounts of diverse data are generated in multiple research domains throughout the whole extent of biomedicine (-omics, biosignals, biomedical images), from the bedside to experimental laboratories, adding new factors that should be considered in medical decision making. Although medical professionals can now have access to more information on their patients' conditions, such data also complicate their work, setting new challenges regarding their efficient processing, interpretation and integration through innovative computational approaches. Sophisticated computer modeling tools are essential to compare observations of an individual patient and relate them to a vast dataset of observations of others with similar symptoms and known conditions. Integrated and individualized biomedical data sources along with advanced information and communication tools will need to make a significant contribution to translational research, namely the movement of discoveries from the bench to bedside, toward the ultimate goal of personalized medicine. Such tools will not only contribute in delivering effective therapies, tailored to the exact biological state of an individual, but could also be used in preventive medicine, to predict occurrence or evolution of specific diseases in people at risk. The International Journal of Systems Biology and Biomedical Technology provides a unique venue for the publication of groundbreaking work in these emerging topics that hold the promise toward personalized healthcare solutions.
