Scientific Managing Editors - Article Transfer Service

Meet our in-house Scientific Managing Editors

Helping you find the right home for your research is our mission. As former researchers and published authors ourselves, we've been in your shoes. We understand the journey to acceptance is not always easy. That is why we want to support you with a personal approach, when your initial submission isn’t successful.

As a part of Elsevier’s Article Transfer Service, we analyze your manuscript, give you editorial guidance and recommend suitable journals via a transfer offer. We may even handle your manuscript through to acceptance. We do all this by combining our experience as authors and editors with our wide range of expertise. Our extensive connections within Elsevier's journal network further facilitate your transfer process.

What do authors say about our Scientific Managing Editors?

I am so excited to receive your helpful email because I am not sure which journal should be my next target after this article is rejected repeatedly during the past 9 months. I do agree with you that the two recommending journals are both possible targets to publish my paper.

I appreciate your responsiveness, thank you. I am impressed by your swift reply, discussing the pros and cons of two suggested options. Your promptness and immediate follow up helps me move the resubmission process forward to the next step without undue delay.

^{- Monica Choy (Author)}

Making this recommendation to the authors often saves time, because the editors thought our work would be better in a different journal, which would prevent an inappropriate submission process again.
