The idea of publishing your research should be an exciting prospect. Regardless of your position or stature, it is an extremely rewarding and self-enriching achievement for any scientist.

By doing so, you join the selected group of individuals who have furthered science for the greater good. In this chapter we will guide you through the process of publishing your research. All the way from choosing the right journal to the day your own little bit of history goes live and your manuscript is published in the scientific literature.
