If great research happens, but no one reads the results, does it make an impact? 
The competitive nature of scientific publishing is impossible to ignore. That’s why it is vital for new researchers to gain the skills to increase their manuscripts' chances of success.

ACS Publications presents "Mastering the Art of Scientific Publication: The Webinar Series."
In the first two webinars of the series, Professor Prashant Kamat, Deputy Editor of The Journal of Physical Chemistry , and Professor Jillian Buriak, Editor-in-Chief of Chemistry of Materials, will present tips on effective manuscript preparation, from creating a figure-based outline, to testing your ToC graphics, to why the experimental section is the key to the longevity of your research. Don't miss this opportunity to gain helpful insight from the Editors of some of most highly cited, highest impact ACS journals.
