Tutorial for Authors and Referees

Editors from Physical Review Letters and Physical Review will provide useful information and tips for our less experienced referees and authors. The information presented will be relevant to anyone who is looking to submit to or review manuscripts for any of the APS journals, or to anyone who would like to add to their knowledge and experience of the authoring and refereeing processes. Topics for discussion will include: (1) how to write good manuscripts and useful referee reports; (2) differences between manuscripts and referee reports for PRL and PR; (3) the roles of authors and referees in the review process; etc. Following a short presentation from the editors, there will be a moderated discussion of these and other topics. Questions from the audience will be most welcome. Refreshments will be served.
