Manuscript preparation

Prepare your article using the official JBSS template

Authors must use the official Journal of Biomedical & Space Sciences manuscript template when preparing and submitting their work.

The template contains the journal's required article structure, typography, page dimensions, headings, abstract format, keywords, references, tables, figures, ethical declarations, author contributions, funding information, data availability statement, and final submission checklist.

Authors should replace all instructional text and placeholders with their manuscript content while preserving the predefined layout and styles.

Author recognition

Certificates issued by JBSS

Editorial decision

Certificate of Acceptance

After a manuscript receives a formal final acceptance decision, the journal may issue a Certificate of Acceptance to the authors.

The certificate confirms that the manuscript has successfully completed the editorial evaluation and has been accepted for publication, subject to completion of any remaining production requirements.

Published article

Certificate of Publication

After the article is formally published on the JBSS website, the journal may issue a Certificate of Publication to the authors.

The certificate identifies the published article and may include the title, author names, publication date, volume, article number, and DOI, when available.

Certificate conditions

Certificates are linked to the official editorial record

Certificates are issued only after the relevant editorial event has been formally recorded in the JBSS submission system.

A Certificate of Acceptance does not replace the published article, DOI record, acceptance decision letter, or final publication metadata. Certificates may be corrected or reissued when verified bibliographic information changes.
