All articles published in Biomolecules and Biomedicine are fully Open Access and made freely available online immediately upon publication. This is enabled through an Article Processing Charge (APC), which supports the costs of editorial management, peer review, production, online hosting, indexing, and dissemination services.
Effective August 1, 2025 (for new submissions):
The APC for accepted articles is 1695.00 EUR, which includes light language editing and basic figure editing to meet the journal’s high publication standards.
The APC for post-publication notices (e.g., corrections, errata) is 100.00 EUR.
There are no submission fees.
To support equitable access to publishing, Biomolecules and Biomedicine offers APC waivers or discounts to corresponding authors based in countries classified by the World Bank:
Low-income economies: Full waiver (free publication)
Lower-middle-income economies: 30% discount
Upper-middle-income economies: 10% discount
These discounts apply only to individual authors without external funding for their research. Institutions may also benefit by joining our Institutional Open Access Membership Program (IOAMP), which enables affiliated authors to publish at reduced APC rates.
Authors from any country who lack sufficient funds may request an APC waiver or discount by including a justification in the cover letter at the time of submission. Each request is considered on a case-by-case basis.
Reviewers for Biomolecules and Biomedicine earn cumulative discounts as part of our Reviewer Recognition Program.
More information about the IOAMP is available on our Institutional Open Access Membership Program.
To maintain high publishing standards, Biomolecules and Biomedicine enforces strict requirements for:
English Language Quality
Manuscripts must meet high standards of scientific English. If the language is suboptimal, authors must submit a revised version with improved language and a certificate of professional editing OR authors may opt to use the journal’s paid language editing service.
Figure Quality
Figures must meet professional standards for resolution and content quality. This includes:
High-resolution images
Accurate graphs and composite figures
Clear color contrast and brightness
Legible fonts and correct spelling
APC is not refundable when publication is terminated for ethical or integrity reasons.
