Abstract

This session is for anyone who wants to know more about successful science publishing. Having worked in science journals and books for five years and handled thousands of manuscripts from submission to publication, I have picked up numerous hints and tips for would-be authors. The session will cover: preparing your manuscript (i.e., what to put in each section and effective use of figures and tables); choosing the right journal; and strategies for getting your paper past the editor. There will also be time for questions and discussion of attendees’ experiences with publishing.
