JOURNAL FUNDING AND SUBSIDY STATEMENT

The Al-Najam Journal of Medical and Life Sciences (ANJMLS) is committed to removing financial barriers for researchers worldwide and supporting broad dissemination of scholarly knowledge through open and accessible scientific publishing. To support the global scholarly community during its foundational years, operational, editorial, peer-review, and digital hosting costs are subsidized by the journal's parent publishing body, Multidisciplinary Scholarly Advancement and Research MSAR Institute (SMC-Private) Limited.

100% APC Open Access Waivers Active
Consequently, no Article Processing Charges (APCs) apply to submissions to ANJMLS through December 2027. All accepted manuscripts will be processed, professionally prepared for publication, and published entirely free of charge during the active waiver period.
Future Policy Notice: To support the long-term digital preservation and sustainability of scholarly publishing operations, a standard publication fee of 100 USD will be implemented for new submissions received from January 1, 2028 onwards. This fee is intended to support the continuing development and maintenance of peer-review management infrastructure, metadata registration and indexing services, digital storage capacity, publishing technology, and permanent multi-lateral archiving systems required to maintain reliable and sustainable publication quality.
