讲座内容简介

The past five years have witnessed the rapid growth of Nature Communications, the flagship open access journal in Springer Nature. In 2016, about 34,500 manuscripts were submitted to Nature Communications, with 13% of them from the mainland of China. However, the acceptance rate for the submissions from China is conspicuously lower than that from Europe, North America, and even other regions in East Asia. In order to help improve the acceptance rate, in this talk, I will first present what the editors of Nature and Nature Research Journals look for in the manuscripts they want to publish. Next, I will clarify the key editorial difference between Nature, the Nature Research journals and Nature Communications, and specify how to publish a paper in Nature Communications. At last, some of the benefits of open access will be briefly discussed.
