This is among the TOP11 journal of forensic science. A monthly journal. The first round of review may be the most difficult. My paper was rejected after two months. But a lab member got a decision of minor revision. His work is on the safety of traffic accidents and forensic accidents, while my work is on traces of pure physical evidence. This journal focuses on forensic medicine. So physical evidence engineering is not the focus of the journal.

I didn't see any scholars' comments on this magazine, so I will record the submission process.
2024.6.25 submitted to journal (handled by the editor-in-chief first, then assigned to two associate editors.)
2024.7.02 under review (Probably due to overseas summer vacation, the reviewers did not accept the invitation and delayed for more than twenty days.)
2024.7.24 under review (One reviewer accepted the review invitation.)
I will continue to update in the future, hoping to provide reference for scholars doing forensic science research :)

In addition to the content and quality of the article, what else should be considered when selecting a publication?

(0) Thank | Oswald Edie

Should we choose both established journals and newly published journals?

The submission cycle is very long, and the classification of major categories is also disadvantaged. It seems that the external review of this journal is done by experts one by one. The time status will change during the initial review. In general, three experts are required for review, and it takes about three to four months for the initial review to come out. The second review also takes over two months, and I even encountered a third review, which surprisingly took over a month as well. It is indeed very slow, but the experts really scrutinize every word and are very serious.

The first review of the article took four months, followed by several minor revisions. It took a total of 7 months from submission to acceptance, with a low acceptance rate. It is a top forensic journal

On the first-month four-month overhaul, after several minor repairs, from submission to acceptance for a total of seven months, the admission rate is very low, which is the top publication of forensic science.

Experience sharing: I was fortunate to meet Professor Saukko, the editor-in-chief himself. When I mentioned about publishing a paper on FSI, he said it is very difficult to publish a paper in their journal now. The editor-in-chief himself is very knowledgeable, and half of the submissions are eliminated in the initial review due to language issues, research direction mismatch, or failure to meet the standards. Overall, although the impact factor has slightly decreased in the past two years, it is still a top journal in forensic medicine

Experience sharing: I submitted a paper and received a major revision notice a month later. After submitting the revised version, I received a minor revision notice after about two months. However, I didn't hear anything after the minor revision for two months. I emailed to inquire about the status and the paper was directly accepted. It may be around Christmas time. The editor was very nice and friendly, and basically told me how to improve my sentences. It's a great journal
