Alexander Siegenfeld is an MIT Physics PhD student and researcher at the New England Complex Systems Institute and MIT Media Lab. He received a B.S. in physics and mathematics, also from MIT, and is an NSF Graduate Research Fellow and Hertz Fellow. His research focuses on fundamental properties of complex systems and the proper use of modeling to capture the large-scale behaviors of elections, pandemics, and economies.

This collaborative and educational webinar welcomes special guests, Professor Hiroki Sayama, Chief Editor for open access journal Complexity, and Alexander Siegenfeld, PhD student and author of the Article of the Year 2020 for Complexity, as they discuss what makes an exceptional publication and how researchers—no matter their research field—can improve their chances of publication in peer-reviewed journals.

Gain behind-the-scenes insight directly from a Chief Editor and a successful early career researcher about drafting a compelling manuscript, addressing difficult reviewer comments, and avoiding desk rejection. Special guests will also discuss how publishers are assisting authors in achieving a seamless (and fast!) publishing experience.

A certificate of attendance will be provided to all attendees.
