For pathologists and laboratory professionals in academia, publishing research in peer-reviewed literature is critical to success. And beyond that, there is a sense of fulfillment that comes from contributing to scientific knowledge and furthering the progress of society.
On this episode of Inside the Lab, our hosts Dr. Lotte Mulder and Ms. Kelly Swails are joined by Dr. Steven Kroft, MD, MASCP, Editor in Chief of the American Journal of Clinical Pathology, Dr. Roger Bertholf, PhD, DABCC, FAACC, Medical Director of Clinical Chemistry at Houston Methodist Hospital and Editor in Chief of Laboratory Medicine, and Dr. Sanjay Mukhopadyay, MD, Director of Pulmonary Pathology at the Cleveland Clinic and Associate Editor of the American Journal of Clinical Pathology, to explain why research and publication are important to a career in laboratory medicine.
The panelists weigh in on the peer review process, describing what it is, how it works, why it’s important—and how it’s been fast-tracked in the season of COVID. Listen in for insight on sharing research findings on social media and learn how to maximize your chances of getting published in a scientific journal.
