“TO PUBLISH OR NOT TO PUBLISH IN FT-50 JOURNALS”
Part 2
A Survival Guide for the Brave
by
Prof. Fehmi Tanrısever
About the talk:
What does it take to write a paper that belongs in an FT-50 journal, and then to actually get it published there? In this opening seminar of the series, I will share lessons from my own journey as an author and senior editor: where good ideas come from and the three tests every idea must pass (novelty, relevance, and feasibility), how everyday observations turn into research questions, how to choose your co-authors, and how the review process really works behind the scenes. Expect real case studies, practical advice, and a few survival stories rather than a formal academic talk.
