How to Use the Bjr Template | A Step-by-Step Guide
Authored by Sumalatha Gangadhar | Published on 28 September, 2026
Use this Bjr template when the manuscript has to match that journal before you upload it.
What is the Bjr Template?
It is the writing shell for Bjr: title and authors, the abstract, the body, declarations, figures, and the reference list.
What's actually in a Bjr submission:
A Bjr submission has a title page with authors and affiliations, an abstract, keywords, the main text for your article type, declarations, the reference list, and figures and tables. This page does not invent a word limit. Where a rule is not listed below, it was not confirmed.
What separates a clean submission from one that gets kicked back:
- A file that ignores the abstract rule or uses a different reference style from the one the journal names.
- A missing declaration: ethics approval, competing interests, funding, or data availability.
Open the journal's current author guide before you upload.
What does this Bjr Template include?
The sections a Bjr submission is built from, in order: title page, abstract, keywords, main text, declarations, references, figures, and tables. It does not replace the journal's own checklist.

Quick Tips for Using the Bjr Template
- Write the abstract to the author instructions. Set the reference style before you add citations.
- Keep declarations with the manuscript, not in a separate note you might forget to upload.
Best Practices
Open the author guide once before you draft and once before you upload. Match a recent Bjr paper for depth, headings, and figure style.
Before You Submit: Final Check
- The reference style matches the author guide, and every citation has a matching entry.
- Declarations are included: ethics, competing interests, funding, and data availability.
- Figures are publication-ready and cited in order.
Then submit on the journal's portal, not from this page.
