All ICB manuscripts intended to be published as full articles are peer reviewed. ICB invites peer reviews from the list of suggested peer reviewers provided by authors, from peer reviewers identified by ICB editors, and from the ICB editorial reviewers. ICB aims to provide authors with two to three peer reviews.
The ICB editors will work with the authors to keep the round of revisions to a minimum by providing constructive feedback.
