Summary
This presentation provides an overview of how an Editor views a paper which is submitted to their journal. It will identify different paper types, identify the issues to consider when identifying a target journal and do’s and don’ts when submitting your paper. Examples of different papers will be provided, and the different aspects authors need to consider during the submission process. The final part focuses on what feedback to give when the paper needs possible minor or major revision or what to do when a paper is rejected.
