Breaking into Publishing with JMVFH
In this professional development webinar, SPEC is partnering with CIMVHR's Journal of Military, Veteran and Family Health (JMVFH) to provide an overview of how to publish in academic journals. Using JMVFH as an example, this session will provide you with best practices for submitting articles and the common reasons papers are rejected. SPEC members are invited to bring their draft abstracts for review and any questions for discussion. Sonya Walton, JMVFH Managing Editor and Maxime Valsamas, Publications Coordinator, will host this event.
