How To Respond to Reviewers Comments (repost)

I am really excited in sharing with you this Webinar by Elsevier Publishing Campus  on how a researcher should deal with the reviewer's comments . I really encourage young researchers to sign up  to Elsevier Publishing Campus for free lectures and very interactive training. Whether it be your interested in writing a journal article, wondering how the peer review process is conducted or even understanding publishing ethics, whatever it may be, EPC has many resources to help researchers achieve some of their goals.  Often enough, authors are asked to revise their paper with minor or major revisions and in many other likely cases the paper is rejected. Regardless of the type of response, the authors receive a series of comments that have been forwarded from the reviewers to the editor .

New Editorial System EVISE

If your a researcher submitting your paper to a journal published through Elsevier, your familiar with their current submission system called EES (Elsevier Editorial System). The interface is very basic for an author point of view, but it is even more rigorous for the editors to work with. It is obvious it requires an updated version, particularly since competing journals have been using for years a more advanced editorial system. I'd like to share with you a detailed article about the new editorial system called EVISE, that is expected to be used by all Elsevier journals by October 2016.  Click here to read the full article.

How do Editors Look at Your Paper (repost)

'' When you are doing research you are primarily focused on your hypothesis, methods, test results and research outcome. You are an expert in your research field and are very aware of what others are researching and publishing too. But the actual art of gettign your own paper ready for publication requires quite some expertise and a great deal of serious attention and preparation.''
