About this course
Submitting your manuscript to the right journal for your research is essential to increase your chance of publication, reach your intended audience and reap the benefits of publishing your data in a peer-reviewed journal. However, navigating the huge number of available journals can be daunting, with many factors to consider as well as the potential risks posed by predatory journals.
In this webinar recording, join experts Rafal Marszalek, Chief Editor at Scientific Reports, and Wade Petersen, Senior Lecturer at the School of Molecular and Life Sciences, Curtin University, as they address the challenges researchers face when evaluating the key factors that inform journal choice.
This webinar complements our course, “Choosing the Best Journal for Your Paper”. In this course, you will learn a step-by-step process for choosing the most appropriate scholarly journals to target for your paper, and how to prioritise which journal to submit to first.
