Avoiding rejection: How to successfully navigate the publishing process

What the event covered

Each year millions of articles are rejected by journals. While experiencing rejection in the publishing process is a normal aspect of every researcher’s work life, there are ways to reduce the rate of rejection.

This session looks at some of the main reasons for articles being rejected and provides tips for avoiding that fate. We look specifically at journal selection, manuscript preparation, publishing ethics, and the peer-review process.

This session concludes the Taylor & Francis Researcher Webinar Series 2023.
