All manuscripts accepted for publication by the Open Journal of Biomedical Research incur an article processing fee that needs to be paid before publication. The total sum will be requested from the author upon the article’s final acceptance (see Editorial Workflow). The applicable rate will be that of the submission year not the year of publication. 

Current fees for different article types:

Original Research:                                                       150,00 € Excl. VAT

Systematic Review & Meta-analysis article:           150,00 € Excl. VAT

Technique:                                                                    100,00 € Excl. VAT

Payment Method

We accept all kinds of online payment systems such as PayPal, Stripe, and credit/debit cards. We also accept payments via bank transfer to Digitodontics Publishing’s official bank account.  A receipt will be issued immediately once the payment is confirmed.

Withdrawal Fees

The Open Journal of Biomedical Research’s editorial board invests time and effort in ensuring that articles are published according to best practices within the scholarly community. Therefore, in case the author decided to withdraw the manuscript after the final decision of acceptance was taken, a withdrawal fee will apply to cover the incurred costs. The author will be requested to pay 40% of the relevant publication fee. Failure to pay the withdrawal fee (or to provide valid reasons) will be reported to the author’s institution as a case of suspicious behavior.
