Dear Colleagues and Friends,

as you know during the past 12 years the Journal has been constantly working day by day to support researchers and Institutions around the world, mostly from low-income research settings, to facilitate the writing and publishing of their scientific findings.

At the moment, we have observed users connecting from countries with restricted internet access can't register on the journal site, getting an error stating "You must complete the validation check used to prevent spam submissions."

We are aware of the problem, which is due to the state firewalls, preventing connections to certain Google servers, where the CAPTCHA system is hosted.

To all our users: the JIDC journal site must use cookies to let you use the site application and payments systems.
