In this episode, Dr Casy Calver talks to Professor Paul Dietze about common submission errors. They explore how to avoid desk rejection, why it’s essential to understand a journal’s scope before submitting, and the need to follow a journal’s author guidelines closely. They also highlight the value of using person-first and non-stigmatising language.
“Whatever you do, don't annoy the editor. And one way to annoy an editor is to send in a crappy abstract or a misleading title.”
Paul Dietze is Executive Editor of the Drug and Alcohol Review journal and an ISAJE board member. He is also Professor at the National Drug Research Institute and Co-Director of the Disease Elimination Program at the Burnet Institute in Melbourne, Australia. Paul has published over 350 journal articles and numerous book chapters spanning the epidemiology of alcohol and other drug use and related harms through to clinical intervention studies. He has a strong interest in developing early career researchers and responding to ‘predatory publishers’ and journals.
