Publishing the results
of your research is vital to a successful career in academia or
industry. Based on the outcome of the Trainee Advisory Committee (TAC)
Survey, as well as the Professional Skills Document, the TAC has
identified that there is a need for trainees to obtain information about
the peer review process in order to maximize the success of publishing
in scientific journals. Therefore, we have organized a career
development session that will elucidate the peer review process and
provide effective tools to be able to write, review, and publish high
quality scientific manuscripts. Experienced speakers will discuss: 1)
how to select a journal; 2) who the reviewers are and what they look
for; 3) how to effectively respond to reviewers; and 4) how to be a
constructive reviewer.
