报告题目：Publishing in Nature-branded journals

报告人：张佳光 博士

报告人简介:

Dr. Zhang joined Nature Communications in February 2025. He received a bachelor’s degree in applied chemistry in 2009 and a PhD in physical chemistry in 2014,respectively,from Peking University. His research was dedicated to catalysis and waste valorization. Jiaguang handles manuscripts in the field of heterogeneous and homogeneous catalysis. He is based in the London Office.

This talk provides an insider’s overview of the publishing process at Nature-branded journals, with a focus on Nature Communications. The session covers the editorial philosophy of Nature journals, criteria for manuscript selection, and practical guidance on preparing successful submissions. Key topics include what makes a paper suitable for Nature and Nature Communications, the significance of open access, the importance of transparency in authorship and data, and the latest editorial policies such as double-blind peer review and preprint support. The talk outlines the peer review process, decision-making criteria, and tips for writing effective cover letters and responses to reviewers.
