Submitting a research paper for publication can be an overwhelming process, especially for early-career researchers. How do you choose the right journal? What are editors really looking for? And how can you improve your chances of acceptance? 

 

To answer these questions and more we are joined by two editors from Wiley’s Advanced Portfolio. Dr. Lei Lei is a Senior Manager of Wiley’s Advanced Portfolio and Deputy Editor of Advanced Science. Dr. Alanna Gannon is Deputy Editor of Advanced Science and Advanced Healthcare Materials
