Publication Modalities
The Revista Ecuatoriana de Medicina y Ciencias Biológicas (REMCB) publishes original scientific research that has not been submitted for publication in any other printed or electronic media, written in Spanish or English. Authors must make a written declaration of the originality of their manuscripts.
Scientific papers in all areas of Medicine and Biological Sciences are of interest to REMCB. The journal requests that quantitative and qualitative results be validated through scientific methodologies and/or statistical analysis.
REMCB accepts manuscripts under three modalities:
- Scientific articles: These are investigations that report original results, product of an experimental research process, through which a contribution to scientific knowledge is shown. Length 7000-8000 words of text including the body of the manuscript without references. Limit of 3 figures and 3 tables.
- Scientific notes: These are short investigations or reports of preliminary results of experimental research processes or exceptional events which, due to their novelty, can be published independently of the final results. Length 4000-5000 words of text that includes the body of the manuscript without references. Limit of 1 figure and 1 table.
- Review of scientific literature: These are studies in which relevant information from previous research on a specific topic of current interest is reviewed and synthesized in a detailed, critical and selective manner. Length 8000-9000 words of text including the body of the manuscript without references. Limit 2 figures and 2 tables.
Manuscripts are received throughout the year and are processed on a first-come, first-served basis.
