the International Journal of Medical Sciences recognize that
many manuscripts rejected by top-tier journals are still
outstanding. Our journal is willing to review and
re-evaluate manuscripts rejected from journals such as the
Nature journals, Cell Press journals, NEJM, Lancet journals,
Annals of Internal Medicine, and other high impact journals.
We encourage authors to provide a copy of previous
reviewer's and editor's comments. These reviews and
rebuttals need to be dated and within 6 months of the last
submission date. It is our belief that these prior reviews
may assist us in expediting your manuscript for
re-evaluation, thus facilitating more rapid publication; in
some cases, the manuscript may be accepted immediately.
Please include the prior reviews and your responses in the
covering letter when making your submission.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

this: Is peer-review portability considered acceptable when
the author is the one that transfers the actual peer review
data from the rejecting publisher to the new one (as
described in the policy above)?</span></p>

This reminds me of the "Neuroscience Peer Review Consortium"<br>

<span class="" id="parent-fieldname-description">"The Neuroscience
Peer Review Consortium is an alliance of neuroscience journals
that have agreed to accept manuscript reviews from other members
of the Consortium. Its goals are to support efficient and thorough
peer review of original research in neuroscience, speed the
publication of research reports, and reduce the burden on peer
reviewers."<br>
<br>
There authors do not forward the reviews themselves <br>
but rather request them to be forwarded<br>
from the first journal to the next. But it is<br>
at the authors discretion whether (s)he wants<br>
them to be forwarded or not.<br>
