ICMCTF 2024 Session FTS-ThL: Focused Topic Session

Publishing research articles is of pivotal importance in the scientific career of a researcher. A scientist without publishing his or her scientific results in a reputable (electronic) journal will not receive the necessary recognition or scientific respect. It is often a major challenge for early career researchers with little or no experience of writing research articles to present their research outcome in a structured fashion. In this presentation, I will discuss different areas of scientific publishing such as (i) how to write a research article and (2) how to publish a research article. I will introduce the publication workflow and explain the different stages involved in the workflow. For the choice of journal, I will explain different models of scientific publishing, including subscription and open access models. The knowledge of best practices in scientific publishing will help early-career researchers of having their manuscripts accepted in state-of-the-art scientific journals. Finally, I will also touch upon subjects such as publishing ethics as well as the usage of Artificial Intelligence in publishing.
