The Editorial Advisory Board is an independent advisory entity responsible for ensuring the scientific excellence of the journal. Composed of prestigious academic authorities, it examines the adequacy of the manuscripts submitted for publication with a peer review polity by two external evaluators for each case, ruling justly on their acceptance, revision or rejection on the basis of the scientific quality of them.
Accordingly, the Editorial Advisory Board is sovereign in deciding on the publication of any paper submitted and the Editor can do nothing about it, limiting only to communicate their decisions to authors.
