A workshop titled “How to Get Published: Expanding the World of Physics with IOP Publishing” was held at Bilkent University Library on March 25, providing insights into the academic publishing process. The session took place at the Main Campus Library Art Gallery and attracted significant interest from faculty members and researchers.
The workshop was led by Nicola Davies, a senior publisher at IOP Publishing. Davies shared her expertise in academic publishing and journal development.
During the session, Davies provided insights into key aspects of the publishing process, including scientific writing techniques, peer review and publishing ethics as well as important considerations for researchers when writing their manuscripts and selecting suitable journals for submission.
