The submission system is very user-friendly, the editor is very responsible, and the reviewers are determined quickly. The first review results came back within 20 days, which was very quick, requiring one moderate revision and one minor revision. 21 days were given to perfect the experimental results. It got accepted directly one week the revision submission. It took a total of 6 weeks, which can be regarded as the fastest among the submissions to journals.

The comments of the reviewers were meaningful. The article needs a certain degree of innovation, and the quality of this journal is good.

The frontiers submitted in early August, after submitting the original data and undergoing various reviews, it was suggested to transfer to this journal. We then directly transferred and the process was very convenient. The transfer was successful on September 4th. After two months, it was still in the editor assignment stage. After emailing the office and receiving a response, we were advised to recommend an editor or topic. After browsing the official website and selecting a relevant topic, we quickly assigned an editor after communicating with the office. In mid-November, we received the first feedback, and on December 11th, we received the final one. There were a total of 4 reviewers, and we could only view the feedback after all of them had responded. There were 3 suggested revisions and 1 rejection. The editor gave us 10 days to make revisions and respond to the feedback, and we ultimately applied for a one-week extension to reply. After making the revisions, two reviewers agreed the next day, while the third reviewer suddenly changed their status to "withdrawn" a week later. However, after two or three days, we received an acceptance email. We then directly submitted the publication fee through the system.

May I ask what data verification repeatedly asked you for?

Does WB need to be re-membraned? Do you need all the raw data from the three repeated experiments? Thank you

Unfortunate, our school was warned in this journal. The Chinese Academy of Sciences also issued a warning. Be cautious! When looking for a job, many organizations do not recognize your achievements.

May I ask if you have any requirements for uploading the raw data after receiving it?

This journal is incredibly fast, with revisions returned within 15 days after submission. There were two sets of revisions suggested, but no additional experiments were required. I was given 10 days to make the revisions, and they were completed by the 9th day. The paper was accepted on the 2nd day. The entire process, from submission to acceptance, took 25 days, making it the quickest submission I have ever experienced. Overall, the feedback was fair and the efficiency was high. Prior to submitting to this journal, the manuscript had been rejected by several top-tier journals. The language and logical structure of the article had already been refined through multiple iterations, so there were no issues in that regard.

This journal took a total of three submissions, lasting over five months, and has now been accepted. The first submission was directly rejected, with the editor stating that the article lacked originality. The second submission included an additional experimental result (originally intended for another article), but it was still rejected, citing language issues. I worked with my advisor to make gradual revisions for nearly a month. After the third submission, the formal review process took almost a month, repeatedly requiring the upload of original data, but it was finally approved. Then, I had to wait for over half a month before an associate editor was assigned. The associate editor was quite responsible and found a total of five reviewers, but three of them withdrew, leaving only two who provided major revisions. After two rounds of revisions, the article was finally accepted. I feel that the reviewers' comments were very objective and they had a good level of expertise.

In conclusion, this journal was not as quick as expected. Although it took up five months of my time, the statistics only account for two months.
