Meet the Editors

Session Submission Type: Professional Development Resources

Abstract

Join us for an interactive session with the editors-in-chief of three premier policy research journals. This panel offers an opportunity to gain insider perspectives on what editors look for in submissions, how to strengthen your manuscript, and strategies for navigating the peer review process. Whether you are a doctoral student preparing your first submission or an established researcher looking to publish in a new outlet, this session will provide practical guidance on editorial decision-making, common pitfalls to avoid, and tips for increasing your chances of publication success. The panel will conclude with an extended Q&A session where attendees can ask specific questions about their own research and publication challenges.
