Mulling over Manuscripts: Hot Chocolate Bar and Faculty Panel
Join us for some hot drinks and desserts before we end the year while we hear from a faculty panel discussing some of the challenges when publishing your work. Panelists will discuss how to navigate the road to publication by discussing topics like when and where should I publish, how to attribute authorship, how to respond to reviewer feedback, and more. RSVP now to let us know you are coming and submit your questions for the panel.
