Zoom webinar with Dr. Hodak

This event is co-hosted by PROMISE and Meyerhoff Grads Programs at UMBC and it aims to serve specifically current graduate students and postdocs at UMBC and UMB campuses. 

Dr. Helene Hodak will be talking about writing for high impact journals. We’ve often heard the term “publish or perish.” Many people are afraid of that term, and many are nervous about the idea of needing to publish in order to have their work deemed worthy. The Elsevier journals are known for being high-impact, and they have a global reputation for showcasing the best work in science. They have offices in NY, Amsterdam, and London.

People from all disciplines are invited to come to the workshop and use the content of this talk to learn more about how to think about publishing, and how to dismiss fear of the process.
