Is one of your manuscripts “stuck” in the writing, submission, or revision process?

You're not alone! Join us for a collaborative planning session led by Dr. Ella August where we'll help you identify what's holding your paper back and make a plan for moving your paper forward.

This workshop is for you if you are:
- Stuck in the writing phase and not sure how to move forward
- Dealing with a journal rejection and unsure where to submit next
- Waiting on a submission that has been under review for months without movement
- Considering a rebuttal and need guidance on how to respond strategically

What to Expect:
- Share where you are stuck in a supportive, collaborative environment
- Receive constructive feedback from peers and experienced researchers
- Leave with a concrete action plan and timeline to move your paper forward
- Benefit from the collective expertise of your CAsToR colleagues

This event is open to all CAsToR-affiliated individuals.

Registration required.
