If it does, the editorial team will select potential peer reviewers within the field of research to peer-review the manuscript and make recommendations for the benefit of the entire scientific community.

Sometimes authors find the peer-review process intimidating because it can lead to the rejection of their manuscript. Keep in mind that revisions and improvement are part of the publication process and actually help raise the quality of your manuscript.

Peer review is a positive process, an integral part of scientific publishing that confirms the validity of the science reported peer reviewers are experts who volunteer their time to help improve the journal manuscripts they review and they offer authors free advice.

More useful: Peer reviewers also consider the importance of the paper to others in your field and can make suggestions to improve or better highlight this to readers.
