Speaker: Dr Silvana Lakeman

Publications are the currency of the research enterprise, but what happens after you click submit to a journal is often a black box. The goal of this session is to illuminate what happens behind the scenes in publishing, with a specific focus on publishing at Nature Energy. As handling editor for the social sciences at Nature Energy, Silvana Lakeman will provide an overview of the process. The session will cover journal selection and the differences between various Nature outlets, and the editorial process – from initial submission to final publication. This includes how to overcome common hurdles in ensuring your paper is catching the attention of editors and reviewers for the right reasons, and examples of successful papers. Any and all questions on this topic, as well as on the Editorial career track, are welcome.
