Why You?

Because you are engaged in academic research, pursuing or holding a Ph.D degree and are passionate about advancing your career and seeking to enhance your knowledge and skills in publishing research papers effectively.

Why Join us?

Research papers published in peer-reviewed journals remain the single most often used criterion to evaluate scientists. These days, this is often supplemented with citation counts and impact factors. Publishing papers can be a game of snakes and ladders but a well-prepared manuscript submitted to an appropriately chosen journal will find more ladders than snakes in its path.

What's in store for you?

The session seeks to explain the detailed instructions journals expect their authors to follow and shows how to win the game by answering these and similar questions.

·       How do I select the right journal for this manuscript?

·       What are the most common reasons for a manuscript to be rejected without a review?

·       How long should I wait after submission to enquire about the manuscript’s fate?
