Publication Fee (APC)
JBRES follows a gold open-access model. Article Processing Charges (APCs) support peer-review management, professional editing and production, DOI registration, and permanent hosting and archiving. No payment is required at submission— APCs are discussed only after peer review and final acceptance.
