Ioannis Papaioannou, scientific editor at The EMBO Journal will take you behind the scenes of scientific publishing at EMBO Press. Dr. Papaioannou will provide an overview of the editorial process of the four journals published by EMBO as an academic organization – The EMBO Journal, EMBO Reports, Molecular Systems Biology, and EMBO Molecular Medicine – and present a brief overview of the policies that EMBO Press has implemented. He will explain how editors make decisions, organize the peer review process and work with authors to improve the revised manuscript. He will also talk about Open Science and transparency, about new initiatives such as refereed preprints and the journal-independent review platform Review Commons, and about efforts EMBO is making to prevent errors and scientific misconduct from entering the scientific literature.
