A research paper presents the results of investigations on a selected topic. Based onresearchers own thoughts and the facts and ideas they have gathered from a variety of sources,a research paper is a creation that is usually unique. In Bangladesh about 100 science andresearch journals are published annually in English language of which 45 are biomedicaljournals. Most of these do not reach their target readers and are not indexed or abstracted.Amongst many other deterrents, poor peer review is one of the most important hindrance toquality publication of science journals regularly. For quality publication, journals need carefuland consistent editing. A well prepared systematic and organized manuscript is a prerequisitefor this purpose. Critical but sensible peer review can enhance and enrich the whole process.The final outcome will be a journal with sound science that can play its proper role in thedevelopment of the country.doi: 10.3329/taj.v15i2.3920TAJ December 2002; Vol.15(2): 98-102
