How Libertas Uses Tumblr to Build Article Visibility
We have had a great experience publishing our paper in Nutrition & Metabolic Insights. The peer review process was rigorous and the journal staff were very helpful with proof processing. We will definitely be submitting future manuscripts to this journal. Keep up the good work!!
All authors are surveyed after their articles are published. Authors are asked to rate their experience in a variety of areas, and their responses help us to monitor our performance. Presented here are their responses in some key areas. No 'poor' or 'very poor' responses were received; these are represented in the 'other' category.See Our Results
