Getting Published & Mastering Peer Review
by Dr. Brian Cusack
| Date and times | 14 & 15 November 2022, 9:30-17:30 CET |
| Location | The workshop will be held online or in-house depending on developments with Covid regulations. |
| Details | Getting a publication accepted depends on more than "just" writing a good paper. Learning to write and respond to reviewers' comments are vital skills for early-career researchers to master if they wish to become established scientists. However, these skills are often neglected, forcing researchers to learn them by trial and error. By learning to address reviewers' comments, researchers not only increase their chances of getting their work published but also learn to think critically about their own research. This workshop is especially recommended for GSGS members in the second half of their project but others are welcome to apply. "One of the best two workshops I ever attended" (quote from a GSGS member). For further info click here. |
