In his academic career, Dr. Kim has published more than 60 articles in distinguished journals such as Scientific ReportsPLoS ONE,Journal of Biological ChemistryMolecular Endocrinology and others. He has also been awarded the “Excellent Young Scientist Award” at the scientific meeting of the Korean Society for Cell biology.

In particular, the workshop focused on the causes of rejection, processing rejection letters, responding to reviewer comments, and overcoming rejection. The session concluded with a 30-minute Q&A session between Dr. Kim and the participants.

“We are aware that there are many ESL researchers who will benefit by understanding the overall process of publication and this should help them improve their chance of publication.
