The Journal of Medical Education Development does not charge any fees during submission or peer review. After acceptance, manuscripts receive comprehensive professional production and editorial services, including language editing, proofreading, rephrasing for clarity and originality, typesetting, formatting, plagiarism and AI content screening, and reference checking, to ensure high publication quality.
Since many of our authors are non-native English speakers, especially from Persian-speaking backgrounds, these services are essential for improving the clarity, accuracy, and readability of manuscripts. This support helps communicate research findings effectively to the international academic community and aligns with the journal's goal of publishing high-quality, accessible scientific work.
Currently, the typical cost for these combined professional services by experienced providers in Iran is approximately 600 Toman per word. The journal has negotiated competitive rates with trusted partners to offer authors these high-quality services at more affordable prices. The fees for these services are shown in Table below.
Service | Unit Cost (Toman) | Description |
---|---|---|
Comprehensive Editorial and Production Services (including language editing, proofreading, rephrasing, typesetting, and formatting) |
600 per word | Complete professional services to improve clarity, accuracy, presentation, and originality |
Plagiarism and AI Checking | Free | Screening for plagiarism and AI-generated content |
Reference Checking | 6,000 per reference | Checking and editing the references list |
