Submitting a manuscript to a peer-reviewed journal used to be a relatively trivial (if daunting) task. With the universal adoption of online submission systems, however, many journals have ramped up their expectations concerning formatting and packaging text, tables, and figures and providing manuscript and author metadata. Steve Claas of the Office of Scientific Writing will walk us through the steps of submitting a manuscript and provide a helpful manuscript prep checklist so your next submission can be completed quickly, efficiently, and (mostly) painlessly.
Steve Claas is a Research Coordinator at the College of Public Health. Steve is also the resident writer, editor, and graphic artist in the Office of Scientific Writing at the College.
He has been involved in environmental and public health research for more than 25 years, coauthored ~50 journal articles and book chapters, edited ten volumes of full-manuscript conference proceedings, and worked as a journal managing editor.
