Overview and Scope
The 5th edition of the biannual workshop Meet the Editors will be held in memory of Peter Adams – one
of the founders of the Physical Review family of journals.
This year’s event will feature minicourses on scientific writing by Karie Friedman and Celia M. Elliott,
and seminars by Profs. Laura Greene (National MagLab and Florida State University), Philip Greenland (Northwestern University), and
Dr. Daniel Saraga (Editor-in-chief of Horizons, Swiss NSF) on
themes related to scientific publishing. We will have a roundtable to discuss important issues such as
plagiarism, fraud, peer reviewing, open access journal vs. archival journals, impact factors, and other
related subjects. As in the previous edition, a “tutorial for authors and referees” will be delivered by APS
Editors Dr. Julie Kim-Zajonz (Physical Review Applied) and Dr. Samindranath Mitra (Physical Review Letters).
