Temporary Suspension of New Submissions

Due to a significant increase in the number of manuscripts received, and in order to ensure a rigorous and timely editorial and peer-review process, the Editorial Team has decided to temporarily suspend the acceptance of new submissions from August 7, 2026 until the next review of this decision.

This temporary pause will allow us to focus on completing the evaluation of manuscripts already under consideration while maintaining the journal’s established editorial and scholarly standards.

The suspension will not affect manuscripts currently being processed or revised manuscripts that authors have been invited to resubmit.

Information regarding the reopening of submissions will be published on the journal’s website no later than November 30, 2026.

We thank our authors, reviewers, and readers for their understanding.
