| Academic publishing is a very competitive environment. Journals are constantly searching for high-quality manuscripts to publish and must make quick editorial decisions. Small errors can affect a journal’s impression of your manuscript. These errors may only slow down the peer review process, or they may result in your manuscript being rejected by the editorial office. During more than 30 years of service helping scientists write and publish manuscripts in major journals around the world, we have identified several common errors that authors make in their manuscripts. By addressing these points before submission, you may have better success with your next manuscript. *This seminar will be recorded, and the video will be available until March 2026. |
