About the Role
Within our Science, Technology and Medical Journal (STMJ) division, the Author Heroes team leverages scientific expertise and problem-solving skills to enhance the author experience. We assist authors in finding suitable publication venues for their papers.
Responsibilities
1. Evaluating content as a partner to external editors;
2. Improving the editorial process for editors and reviewers iteratively;
3. Engaging closely with authors to help them improve their manuscripts;
4. Helping authors increase their chances of success in publishing, including guidance on submitting to alternative journals if rejected from their first choice.
Content evaluation is based on questions such as: Is the article within the aims and scope of the journal? Does the science make sense? Do the results support the main conclusions? Have the authors chosen an appropriate method? Is the manuscript of sufficient quality? Is this the right journal for this work, or could the authors improve their manuscript to increase their chances of success elsewhere?
Our Editors guide authors and ensure a smooth submission experience for our journals.
