The path to peer-reviewed academic publication is long, complex, and often frustrating. Many early-career professionals may not be familiar with the process and may feel overwhelmed by it. In this program, the faculty will summarize the publication process and provide tips and frameworks to successfully conceptualize, draft, revise, and submit academic papers for peer-reviewed publication. They will start with identification of research questions and approaches to study designs, including design and interpretation of statistical analyses and pitfalls in these processes. Specific aspects of drafting abstracts, posters, digital slide, and virtual presentation will be addressed. Finally, the program will cover key aspects of drafting, formatting, and revising manuscripts for academic journal submission, including drafting the formal “response to reviewers”.
