Step 1: Manuscript Preparation
Ensure your manuscript is an original work, not previously published or under consideration elsewhere. Your submission should be well-structured and clearly presented.

- Main Body: Typically includes Introduction, Methods, Results, and Discussion/Conclusion sections.
Step 2: Formatting & Style
Adherence to formatting guidelines is crucial. Manuscripts should be submitted in .docx or .pdf format.
- Font: Use a standard, readable font like Times New Roman or Arial (12pt).
- Spacing: Double-spaced text is preferred for readability.
