Submission Guidelines

Due to the high level of interest and limited number of articles available for the subsidy each year,  the following restrictions are in place

  • Authors with eligible grant funds are requested to use those funds for APCs in order to provide the subsidy to authors without funding. 
     
  • The subsidy is limited to one per person per calendar year.
     
  • Authors must indicate their GUMC affiliation at the time of submission.
     
  • Once the limit has been reached for the calendar year (articles are approved first come, first served basis after editorial acceptance/in production),  the subsidy will cease for the remainder of the calendar year. 
     
  • Authors that submit articles  after the subsidy has ceased for the year  will not receive the benefit. Funding can not be applied retroactively to a previous year.
     
  • Authors that participate are asked to include the acknowledgement statement: funding support is in part from Georgetown University Medical Center.
