Demystifying the Editorial Process at Cell Press
Scientific publishing remains a critical component of academic scholarship, yet the editorial process is often opaque to authors. This presentation will provide an overview of editorial practices at Cell Press, with a focus on Cell Reports. I will outline the stages of manuscript evaluation and offer guidance on effective engagement with editors, including strategies for pitching a manuscript, responding to editorial decisions, preparing revision plans, and navigating journal transfers.
