This workshop will:
- Cover crucial information and give guidance relating to topics such as choosing journals for publication, journal status (impact factor, rankings), reviewing processes
- Explain why papers get rejected - guarantee it won't happen for the wrong reasons!
- Work with real examples of rejection letters and reviewers' comments, enabling you to learn to 'read' them in a way that places you in a strong position to respond and decide what to do next
- Explore examples of responses to editors, so you can influence the editor's decision and hopefully increase your chances of acceptance
