R.T. Edwards offers a web-based article tracking system for contributors to selected journals. Upon initial receipt of your submission you will be notified by the Editor-in-Chief. In most cases, an STN (submission tracking number) and a specific URL (web address) will be included as part of this notification. As your submission moves through each stage of the publishing process -- from editorial review to issue publication scheduling -- you and your coauthors can monitor its status. Use of the STN assures confidentiality.
