(Posted February 2023)

Writing a manuscript for a journal can be an arduous task. It can be time consuming and often the fate of the publication and study lies in the hands of a few reviewers. It is quite disappointing for an author to get a paper rejected after months and sometimes years dedicated to a particular study.  However, scientific journals must rely on expert reviewers to ensure peer-review and high-quality standards.

Intended Audience: All surgical educators who participate in Surgical Education Research.

Objectives: After reading this article, the reader will be able to:

  1. Explain what reviewers are looking for in a winning manuscript.
  2. Discuss what information is included and described in each section of the manuscript.
