Disseminating the results of your research is more vitally important now than ever before. Publishing in the right journal as quickly as possible is also of paramount importance. Editorial leaders of ACRM publications will cover topics of interest to ACRM members and particularly to early career professionals, including authorship, preparing and submitting your manuscript, predatory journals, reporting guidelines, trial registration, reviewing, publication ethics, open access, and digital innovations in publishing. We expect a lively, interactive session, and actively encourage questions.

Learning Objectives:

Discuss issues in preparing a manuscript for peer review
Describe reporting guidelines and methods to assure effective integration in the preparation of a research project
Describe issues in serving as an effective peer reviewer for a scientific article
Discuss open access opportunities in rehabilitation medicine research
