What's broken about academic publishing today

Three frustrations every active researcher knows — and what NeuScience does differently.

01
Peer review takes 6–18 months
Careers stall. Findings go stale. Priority is lost to competitors. The system was built for print, not for science that moves fast.
NeuScience targets 21-day first decisions
02
Accepted papers stay invisible
No DOI until final publication. Not indexed in the right databases. Traffic stays low. Work that deserves citations gets none.
DOI on acceptance, indexed from day one
03
Rejections with no useful feedback
"Outside scope." "Does not meet our standards." No elaboration, no path forward. Months of waiting for two sentences.
Named reviewers, structured, actionable critiques

Why researchers are looking for alternatives
100+ days
Median time to first decision at top-quartile journals. Most researchers wait three to six months just to learn whether a manuscript will be reviewed.
$2,600+ avg APC
Article processing charge at major open-access publishers. Leading titles charge $5,000–$11,000, placing open access out of reach for unfunded or early-career researchers.
90–96%
Rejection rate at high-impact journals — most without substantive feedback. Months of waiting for a decision that offers no path forward.
NeuScience targets 21-day first decisions, structured reviewer reports on every decision including rejections, and $0 APC through 2026.

What sets NeuScience apart

Six commitments — each one a direct response to something working researchers consistently identify as broken in academic publishing.

01
21-day peer review target
We recruit qualified reviewers before desk acceptance. First decisions — not just acknowledgements — within 21 days.
02
DOI assigned on acceptance
Your work is citable the moment it clears review — not weeks later when production is done.
03
A transparent indexing roadmap
Google Scholar and BASE auto-index on first publication. CrossRef DOI and COPE membership applications are in progress. DOAJ, PubMed, and Scopus are scheduled targets with realistic timelines — we publish our indexing status, not just our ambitions.
04
Named reviewers, structured feedback
Optional reviewer disclosure. Structured review format. Every rejection includes actionable critique, not boilerplate.
05
Interdisciplinary by design
NeuScience was built for work that crosses borders. No rejection on scope grounds for genuinely interdisciplinary research.
06
No APC for 2026 authors
Our founding author window carries no article processing charge. Publish your first paper with us at no cost.

Discovery & Indexing

A public, honest indexing roadmap

We publish our indexing status exactly as it stands — no inflated claims, no "confirmed" badges for things still in process. Green means live on first publication. Amber means application submitted and in review. Purple means scheduled with a realistic target year.

The Publisher

NeucitePress — academic publishing built for speed and transparency

NeucitePress is the academic publishing division of Neucite LLC, incorporated in the United States. We launched to address a single problem: the infrastructure of academic publishing has not kept pace with the speed of modern research.

Our journals share a common platform — rapid review, structured editorial processes, and indexing from launch — while maintaining independent editorial boards for each discipline.

NeuScience is the flagship journal. NeuBiology, NeuPhysics, and NeuChem launch progressively through 2026.
