For Editors

Navigation: Resources > For Editors

CorayNova's For Editors resources are designed for Editors-in-Chief, Associate Editors, Section Editors, Editorial Board members, Guest Editors, and editorial teams who help develop, manage, evaluate, and safeguard CorayNova journals.

This section brings together publisher-level information on editorial roles, editorial independence, initial assessment, reviewer selection, editorial decisions, special issues, difficult cases, editorial board development, templates, tools, records, and responsible use of the CorayNova Journals Platform.

CorayNova's editorial standards are grounded in academic independence, fair process, transparent journal information, responsible peer review, publication ethics, research integrity, confidentiality, conflict-of-interest management, and careful communication with authors, reviewers, readers, institutions, and publisher-level offices. Editorial assessment, peer review, acceptance, rejection, correction, retraction, and appeal outcomes must not be influenced by APCs, sponsorship, institutional arrangements, commercial relationships, marketing interests, or operational convenience.
