how to publish your work in Nature? - (Aug/08/2007 )
I am a freshman in Bio-tech,my friends say Nature is a great magazine,so I want to know what work can publish in Nature? thank U
if you dont know what you can publish in nature you wont be publishing in nature for a while.
publishing in nature is like getting a blue peter badge - a very high honour that not everyone will recognise - but those in the right cicles will be jealous as hell.
a fair amount of blind luck is involved too

look at the Nature website for some idea. But really, according to my supervisor, if you can publish one or two Nature papers every 5 years, you will almost certainly never be in need of grant money again. So high is the prestige of publishing in Nature, that funding bodies will be happy to throw money at you.
Blink luck but also fast feet to exploit the gold mine that you have found.
Nature, Cell and Science are the creme de la creme of publishing. I would give my right arm and eye-teeth to get a paper in one of these. Publishing in these journals will make your career and open doors. While there is an element of luck, who you are (or more of who your PI is) and what mood the editors/reviewers are in the day you submit, the work published here tends to be very novel and has a broad interest. Your work needs to be clean and convincing. Your story needs to be tight and straight forward. Most articles are actually quite short and to the point. Start looking at what is published in these jounals and you'll get a better idea of what these journals accept. Besides, it's always a good idea to keep on-top of what's being published. You never know when one article (that may be completely out of your field of interest) will give you that "brilliant idea" for your project.
Publish in Cell, Nature or Science (CNS) and you will succeed. Its a dream for all researchers to publish in one of these journals. Its a matter of luck as well as hard work and most importantly the reputation of your PI which can get you a paper in CNS.
Hope everyone gets to publish in CNS atleast once in a lifetime.

Its OK... actually just my IE crashed... when I viewed the page in Firefox nothing happened other than being redirected to a page that had nothing to do with this topic. lol
Rule of the game - never click on any link without knowing what it is or who sent it. (Phising sites are everywhere) and in Bioforum, if a new member with just a few posts puts a link. . .. don't ever ever ever ever click on that whatever it might say.
