“How to publish in Nature Communications”
Ekaterini Lyras, PhD
Senior Editor, Nature Communications
Karina joined Nature Communications in September 2021. After studying biochemistry and neuroscience she received her PhD from the Charité University of Medicine and carried out postdoctoral work at the Max Delbrück Center for Molecular Medicine in Berlin. Her research focused on preclinical models of neuroimmune conditions and on the particular role of microglia and nerve-associated macrophages in physiology and disease. Karina is based in the Berlin office and handles preclinical and clinical research submissions on bone, lung, skin and muscle physiology and disease, gene therapy and toxicology.
About the talk:
In this talk, you will hear about the different Nature family journals, the types of content that they respectively publish and their editorial selection criteria. The talk will then focus on what researchers can keep in mind when submitting to a journal to ensure that it is the best fit for their work and to facilitate fair editorial consideration. The editorial and peer-review process will be explained. For those that are interested in a career as a professional editor, Karina will briefly go over the day-to-day tasks of an editor and the skills that are required for the job.
