Welcome to the Summer of 2022 KeyLIME “re run” series! Over the summer months, we will be re-releasing some of our earliest episodes: Give some old favorites a listen or discover some episodes from our archive you may not have heard yet!

This week, in summer re run #11...  Episode 158: Dear Author, Nope. - The Editors [Reasons for Rejecting a Manuscript]. The authors of this study looked to inform scholars about common reasons for internal editor review rejections, increase transparency of the process, and provide suggestions for improving submissions.
