Abstract

Nature Research is a flagship portfolio of journals, products and services, including Nature and the Nature-branded journals. Nature Research is part of Springer Nature, one of the world’s leading global research, educational and professional publishers. Nature has been serving scientists and scientific communities since 1869 through publication of significant advances, and providing a forum for the reporting and discussion of news and issues concerning science. Nature-branded journals continue to strive to publish and communicate the most striking developments in science to broad audiences. This workshop will give insight into the Nature-branded journals, their policies and procedures, and aims to help you to prepare manuscripts submission for journals with broad readerships.

Briefbio：

Dr. Silvia Milana is Senior Editor and Team Manager at Nature Communications, where she leads a subject-based team of five editors with a focus on fundamental and condensed matter physics. Besides working closely with the editors in her team on all aspects of the editorial process, she oversees manuscripts covering underlying physics and applications of two-dimensional materials, van der Waals heterostructures and resulting devices. In an earlier role as Assistant Editor, she handled manuscripts on large-area synthesis of two-dimensional materials, (opto-)electronic devices and nanoscale light-matter interaction. Prior to joining Nature Communications, she was Research Associate at the Engineering Department of the University of Cambridge, and Junior Research Fellow at St Edmund’s College. Her research at the Cambridge Graphene Centre focused on light interaction with graphene, related two-dimensional materials and plasmonic nanostructures, with emphasis on Raman spectroscopy of layered crystals and heterostructures. She received a PhD in Electrical Engineering from the University of Cambridge.
