My experience as EIC of OMEGA (只有英文版本)

Although as academicians we all carry the burden and difficulties of publishing scientific papers, it also brings great feelings of accomplishment to have these published works with our names on them. It is never easy even for an experienced researcher but might be very challenging for newcomers. In this presentation, we will take you behind the scenes and demystify the process by looking at submissions from the Editor-in-Chief’s point of view. Over the last 23 years we have processed over 25,000 manuscripts and only 10% were accepted. What are the characteristics of those selecting successful ones? Do they have anything in common? We will discuss the evolution of OMEGA over the last 23 years, trends in submissions, acceptance rate and Impact Factor, Editorial Advisory Board structure, responsibilities, and manuscript flaw. As a former EIC I am looking at title, abstract, key words, paper, examples, conclusions, references, appendices, cover letter and similarity index. Finally, we will discuss the revised papers. At the end of the presentation the audience will have a better understanding of the review process and how to succeed in submission papers.
