Article submission

To validate this course you need to submit an article, and to review one.

19 May 2025 : submit your article, preferably written in LaTeX (see details below). Submit your article as one single pdf file, using the link provided below. Each of you will receive someone else's manuscript, to be evaluated anonymously, with an online questionnaire. The procedure will be a lighter version of that used by most scientific journals.

Your article:

• Should be written by you and should focus on a scientific topic; normally the one you are working on. You may reuse parts of existing articles, but avoid copy-pasting complete texts, especially if already published. Avoid reviews : your article should  focus on a recent finding.
  
• LaTeX is recommended but not mandatory
• The format of your file must be pdf (not Word or Openoffice)
  
• English is recommended but French is allowed
• Should not exceed 3-6 pages
• Should contain 1 or 2 figures
• Should follow the "canonical" structure of an article with subject / authors / abstract / introduction /.../conclusion / bibliography.
• Should follow the rules we discussed during our classes : structuring of the abstract, timing, take home message, etc.
  

Feel free to add your detailed comments on the manuscript, such as suggestions for additions, in the field provided at the end of the form. Challenge the author to improve his/her article ! This process is anonymous, so please do not identify yourself to the author. We will not reveal the identity of the reviewers either. It is likely that your area of expertise will differ from that of the author. Do not worry about this. For this exercise, we will focus on the structure of the article and the underlying science rather than the detailed results, which would require more specific expertise.

The overall objective is to let you participate in a mini-exercise that mimics a real writing/submission/evaluation situation.

10 June 2025 : from 13:30-15:30 we shall discuss your articles and your reviews
