A researcher’s life is not easy. After working on a research project, you need to script an impressive manuscript and ensure it meets all the criteria for acceptance in your chosen journal, and all this while juggling multiple roles. Getting your work published in the right journals is known to have an impact on your career trajectory, your reputation as a credible researcher, and even the funding opportunities that come your way. However, for most, this journey to getting published is held up by peer reviewer requests for extensive revisions and, even worse, rejection. In fact, a study on manuscript submissions from 18 countries showed rejection rates of 22.6% to 73.4%, depending on the journal submitted to,1 with top journals known to reject more than 90% of the manuscripts submitted, across research fields.2
Even groundbreaking findings can be rejected if they do not meet key submission requirements. This is where R Pubsure comes in with its secure, trusted, and comprehensive manuscript submission readiness check, which will help you speed up your submission process and give you the best chance of acceptance.
Based on 18+ years of editorial intelligence and powered by robust AI algorithms, R Pubsure checks your manuscript for language, technical, and ethical issues and delivers a detailed R Pubsure Report in minutes. Thousands of researchers have used R Pubsure to optimize their paper before submission, and many more have reached out with queries on navigating this crucial stage. R Pubsure is dedicated to supporting you all the way through submission, and it is with this intent that we conducted Pubathon, a global research publishing event where researchers learnt how to speed through manuscript submission.
What is Pubathon 2021 all about?
A FREE two-day event that was conducted on February 25-26, 2021, Pubathon was a one-of-a-kind global research publishing event that brought together editors from leading journals and researchers from across the world. Attendees got to discuss the main challenges for manuscript submission and gained journal editors’ perspectives on what constitutes successful submissions over two 90-minute sessions. They also got a chance to experience and learn more about how R Pubsure can help simplify and speed up the submission process in this free event.
