About the workshop

Don't know your H-index from your impact factor? This workshop guides you through the publishing process from choosing where to publish, through disseminating and promoting your publications, to tracking attention and citations. You will have a chance to use various tools e.g. to find impact factors for journals in your field and explore article and author level citation metrics. We also discuss authors’ rights to share their publications and good practices for attracting citations.
