How are you doing now, my friend?

The requirement is to submit original data files that do not exceed 30 MB each, with large files recommended to be uploaded to the Nut Cloud Drive. However, after submission, they keep asking for resubmission without specifying what was inadequate. The emails received are the same as before, and this is already the fourth time resubmitting.

It is troublesome to submit the original data.

One month after submission, Reviewer 1 uploaded their comments. However, after waiting for four months, there was still no news from the other reviewers. After reminding once, the official reply stated that the reviewers had been urged and the other reviewers would soon upload their comments. Finally, after about five months, the results were obtained. The review comments were very detailed and the reviewers were very diligent and responsible. After each revision, the reviewers would carefully review the manuscript again and then provide a few minor revision suggestions. This process was repeated several times. Finally, after more than five months, the manuscript was accepted. The subsequent process was much faster. Many thanks to the reviewers for their efforts, and the editorial office was also very friendly and provided timely responses.

The Editorial Assignment scheduled for January 9th was handed over to a new editor halfway through, and it still hasn't been submitted for review. Is this a normal speed? ?

This magazine is quite competitive in the Frontiers series. I was fortunate to have two articles published in this magazine and would like to share my submission experience for everyone to reference:

Manuscript 1
2023-05-31 Submitted to the magazine
2023-06-30 Interactive forum opened (3 reviewers, 1 minor revision and 2 major revisions, only 7 days given for modifications)
2023-07-04 Revisions made
2023-07-19 Accepted
2023-08-09 Online publication

Manuscript 2
2023-12-13 Submitted
2024-06-21 Interactive forum opened (took a long time to find reviewers, delayed for half a year, both reviewers requested minor revisions)
2024-07-01 Accepted
2024-07-16 Published

It is currently very difficult to find reviewers for Frontiers, but once reviewers are found, the subsequent steps are quick. The submission system and experience are also user-friendly. If your university or hospital does not have any warnings, it is a good choice!

Have you encountered this status during the EA stage? 

NO ACTION IS REQUIRED FROM YOU

Your manuscript has been submitted and is now in the editorial assignment stage. We are in the process of appointing an editor and reviewers.

Review is ongoing.

The review is ongoing 15 days after submission. Does this mean it is likely to be rejected soon?

Mine too, it's been half a month and still haven't been assigned an editor! Very confused!

The time for editors to assign and complete the review is relatively long, and the journal's cycle is about 14 weeks. Please be patient and pay attention to the status of the journal.

I also submitted to this section, but it has been half a month and I still haven't been assigned an editor. How about you?

One month after submission, the initial review also requires submission. I don't know if there are too many co-authors on the paper, or if the journal has been stricter in its authorship verification recently. Luckily, I have supporting materials, so once they are provided, we can move on to the next review stage.

I am also a gut microbiota manuscript, it has been submitted for over a month and has not been assigned an editor yet. Is this normal? Should I follow up?

In the Initial Validation phase, the editor requests "evidence that different members of the author group have participated in writing the manuscript." This could be emails exchanged among team members before submission, chat application messages, or manuscript annotations from published reviews. Have you encountered this situation before? Looking for guidance from experienced researchers!

Hello, do we have to wait for all the reviewers to respond before we can start revising and submitting?

Submitted a review article, Reviewer 1 provided minor revisions, recommended for publication after modifications, and shortly after the editor initiated interactive review. Currently, there is only one reviewer. I don't understand what is going on
