Many researchers dream of publishing their work in world-leading journals like Nature. But how do you catch the attention of editors and reviewers at such high-impact publications?
On Sunday, September 14, 2025, an international online webinar will bring answers straight from the source. Prof. Willie Peijnenburg, a distinguished environmental scientist from Leiden University in the Netherlands, will share practical strategies on how to write and present research that makes it into top-tier journals.
Prof. Peijnenburg has authored more than 675 scientific papers, with over 26,700 citations to his name. Drawing on his extensive editorial experience with respected journals such as Environmental Science & Technology and Aquatic Toxicology, he will explain how the review process works, what editors are really looking for, and how researchers can position their manuscripts for success.
The webinar will also dive into the specific challenges of publishing in Nature and its sub-journals. According to Prof. Peijnenburg, the keys are novelty, clarity, and conciseness. “It’s crucial to explain very briefly and very clearly why your research is new and how it advances the field,” he notes.
This event will be hosted by Prof. Yang Liu of Kunming University of Science and Technology and is open to researchers, graduate students, and anyone interested in learning how to publish their work more effectively.
