Knowing the best way to structure your scientific paper, identifying the
most appropriate journal, and understanding the peer review process are
critical to getting your work published. This workshop will focus on steps
to take before writing a paper; developing and submitting a manuscript;
what editors and publishers are looking for; and dealing with referee
comments. Sensitive areas such as publishing ethics, plagiarism, and
duplicate publishing will also be addressed.

Anthony Newman is a Publisher with
Elsevier,
based in Amsterdam. Currently responsible for several applied biochemistry
journals, he joined Elsevier 25 years ago and has been Publisher for the
last 12 years. Before then he was the marketing communications manager for
the biochemistry journals of Elsevier. By training he is a polymer chemist
and was active in industry before leaving London and moving to Amsterdam to
join Elsevier.
