Should You Publish Your Research?
Hear From Both Sides of the Editor's Desk
29th July · 8:00 PM ET
Join Jonas, Managing Editor of Convergence Journal, and Shanay, editor at the Journal of Emerging Investigators (JEI), for a practical look at what makes student research publication-ready. They will explain how editors evaluate submissions, what separates a strong paper from an unfinished one, and how students can decide whether to publish, revise, present, or keep developing their work. The session will also include live feedback on selected student research ideas, giving attendees a clearer sense of what strong research looks like before it reaches an editor’s desk.
If your child is working on research or hoping to publish before applications, this is worth understanding early.
