Author Description

"Every health researcher should have this book in their pocket." There is no guarantee that a manuscript will get accepted for publication, but by refining your research and reporting, it is in your hands to convince peer reviewers and editors! You may be wrestling with several decisions: Which study type is suitable? What should be described in my study protocol? What is key when writing, submitting, and revising my study manuscript? Jan Roth is a clinical epidemiologist and founder of an independent research company. In his role as editor and methods reviewer, he evaluates hundreds of submissions every year. Read his insights, learn to think like an editor and methods reviewer, and publish successfully in peer-reviewed journals. The focus of this concise pocket guide is on medical and epidemiological research, but the provided concepts and checklists can be used for other disciplines as well.
