Title: 101 Mistakes to Avoid Before Submitting a Paper
Abstract: There is a strong desire, often driven by real or perceived pressures, to publish research in a top tier journal like Science. However, with a rejection rate above 93%, it is a difficult process. Beyond this, the publication landscape has gotten more complex with pre-print servers, predatory journals, mega-publishers, etc. In this talk, I will describe the publication process at Science, within the broader context of publishing good papers in any journal. I will focus on steps you can take to simplify the process both prior to submission and during the review and revision process.
