About the Journal

Aim

Journal of Bionic Memory is an international, peer-reviewed, open-access journal dedicated to advancing research on intelligent medical devices and bioelectronic systems that integrate embedded memory, computational architectures, and adaptive decision-making mechanisms.

The journal focuses on implantable or wearable technologies designed to interact dynamically with living tissues for diagnostic, therapeutic, restorative, or augmentative purposes. Emphasis is placed on systems in which hardware, software, and biological interfaces converge to enable responsive, learning-capable, or feedback-controlled medical applications.

By bridging engineering, computational sciences, and clinical medicine, the journal aims to support the development and clinical translation of memory-enabled therapeutic systems targeting neurological, cardiovascular, metabolic, sensory, musculoskeletal, and other organ-based disorders.

Peer Review Policy and Process

Manuscript Submission

Manuscripts must be submitted through the journal’s online submission system. Submissions should include a cover letter, complete author and co-author information, the main manuscript file, and all required supplementary documents as specified in the Author Guidelines.

Initial Editorial Assessment

All submitted manuscripts undergo an initial evaluation by the Editorial Office and Associate Editors to ensure:

Compliance with the journal’s scope and aims
Adherence to the Author Guidelines and formatting requirements
Ethical suitability
Adequate academic English
Originality screening using plagiarism detection software

Manuscripts that do not meet these criteria may be returned to the authors for correction prior to peer review or may be declined without external review.

Peer Review Process

Journal of Bionic Memory follows a double-blind peer review process in which the identities of both authors and reviewers are concealed.

Each manuscript deemed suitable for peer review is evaluated by at least two independent expert reviewers. Reviewers assess manuscripts based on:

Scientific rigor and methodological soundness
Adequacy and reliability of data
Validity of conclusions
Originality and innovation
Relevance to the journal’s scope
Quality and clarity of presentation
Appropriateness of literature citation

If reviewers’ recommendations differ substantially, the manuscript may be evaluated by an additional independent reviewer.

Editorial decisions (acceptance, minor revision, major revision, or rejection) are made by the Editor-in-Chief or designated Associate Editor based on reviewers’ reports and overall scientific merit.

Revised manuscripts are typically returned to the original reviewers for re-evaluation.

Reviewer comments are treated as confidential. Reviewer anonymity is strictly maintained throughout the process.

Ethical Standards

The journal adheres to internationally recognized ethical guidelines, including the principles of COPE (Committee on Publication Ethics) and ICMJE recommendations.

All submissions are screened for plagiarism and potential ethical misconduct. The journal reserves the right to request ethical approval documentation when applicable.

Copyediting and Proofing

Accepted manuscripts undergo professional copyediting for language, formatting, and reference accuracy in accordance with journal standards.

Authors receive page proofs for final review. Corrections at this stage should be limited to typographical or production errors; substantial changes to content are not permitted.

Publication

Following final approval, the article is prepared for online publication. The final version is published in the journal’s online issue and becomes part of the permanent scholarly record.
