Journal Papers

I am pleased to announce that my very first journal paper (I am a co-author, not the first author) has made it past the review process and been accepted for publication. In a good journal, too. (At least, I think it is - impact factor of 2.4 - whatever that means. I'm having to learn the lingo here...)

And also, another paper on which I am second author has just been submitted to a journal for review. It's too early to hear back yet, but I have high hopes!

Look at that - one of these days I may see my name in print! Miss Outlier, published author... I like it.

  1. Congrats. You can do some googling to get a sense for impact factors. Here are the top 100 journals from 2007.

  2. Congratulations! When my first article was published I sent it to every family member and friend that I have. I'm pretty sure only my Dad read it, but maybe a few others at least glanced at it. Also, in addition to Google, you can look up impact factors for all journals on Web of Science.
