Editorial Policy

The Global Journal of Medical and Pharmaceutical Sciences (GJMPS) is committed to maintaining the highest standards of academic integrity, transparency, and editorial independence in the publication of scholarly research.

The editorial process is designed to ensure that all manuscripts are evaluated fairly, objectively, and solely on the basis of their scientific merit.


Editorial Independence

Editorial decisions are made independently by the Editor-in-Chief and the Editorial Board without influence from sponsors, advertisers, or the publisher. All manuscripts are assessed based on their quality, originality, relevance, and contribution to the field.

Independent experts in the relevant field evaluate the manuscript based on:

Scientific quality and originality

Methodological soundness

Clarity of presentation

Editorial decisions are based on the recommendations of peer reviewers and the assessment of the editorial team.

Request major revisions and resubmission

Reject the manuscript

Authors are informed of the editorial decision along with reviewers’ comments where applicable.
