Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

The editorial department of Science is as busy as ever.

Every day, we receive a large number of manuscripts sent from all over the world, and in the end, it is less than 10%.

Compared to an editorial position, Warren feels that his job is more like a gold digger. Screen out the novel and groundbreaking thesis from a large number of manuscripts and hand them over to the appropriate reviewers.

There is no doubt that this is a great job because the whole world is being changed.

At the same time, however, it is also a boring job.

As for why?

Because as one of the two top journals in academia, the reputation of Science is too big.

In order to publish here, contributors are also unscrupulous. It is for this reason that they see a variety of “breakthrough” progress every day.

To be honest, for the correctness of thesis, there is no way to judge them as editors who are only half a foot in the academic circle. Only refer to the identity of the contributor, as well as information from the university or research institution, past submissions, etc., to determine whether thesis is eligible for peer review.

As usual, Warren drank himself a cup of refreshing black coffee before working, then opened his own work mailbox and charged thesis through technical editorial review.

Looking at the e-mail, he couldn’t help but have some scalp tingling.

“I think the technical department should develop some new features for our office software.”

“For example?” Brock, who was working on his hands, asked casually.

Warren said with a sigh of relief: “For example, before sending thesis to us, calculate the weighted value of the contributor’s past submission records, the academic rankings of the research institutions, and then sort them.”

Bellock said with a smile : “This is a good idea, but it seems to be unfair to those not-known contributors.”

“What’s the relationship? We are Science. Shouldn’t we use a more scientific method to screen our manuscripts?” While dragging a thesis into the recycle bin without mercy, Warren spits on the channel. “Some of thesis It’s a waste of time.”

I got rid of a thesis and quickly opened the next one.

When I saw the title, Warren couldn’t help but vomit in my heart.

It is a lithium-sulfur battery!

The previous one also claimed that it solved the shuttle effect, but only studied solid electrolytes. To be honest, there is nothing wrong with the direction of solid electrolytes, but some of the errors in thesis are obvious even if they are editors who have no reviewing ability.

Recently, he has been vomiting.

Subconsciously looking at the contributor and the research institution, Warren wondered if he should waste a few minutes on this thesis, and suddenly he collapsed.

I saw that the name of the contributor seemed familiar.

Looking at the research institute, I saw the Frick Chemistry Laboratory at Princeton University.

Then Warren discovered something more surprising.

Thesis of submission is not just an article, but two articles…

Warren silently looked forward to the calendar resting on the corner of the desk.

I remember that the last time Science published “highlights” on the modified PDMS material “the” published in “Nature”, it was only half a year. He could not believe that only half a year would be enough to write another article with “Modified PDMS.” The material “the same level of thesis.

After solving the lithium dendrite problem, the shuttle effect is solved again?

This is too exaggerated!

However, Lu Zhou’s academic reputation is there, and Warren has paid enough attention to this thesis, carefully studying it line by line.

Then he made a difficult decision.

At the lunch break, the Belk standing at the desk next door got up and was preparing to solve the problem of lunch.

At this moment, he noticed that the colleague next to him was staring at the screen with his brows locked, without the slightest departure from the seat. Out of curiosity, he walked over and stood behind Warren’s back.

“Lu Zhou? That Princeton’s Professor?”

Warren looked at thesis meticulously, and replied casually: “Yes, I think Princeton probably won’t have a second name that is so strange to the Professor…”

Brock’s tone is a bit strange: “It’s unbelievable, it’s only half a year… and two manuscripts together?”

“And it’s still a lithium-sulfur battery. Obviously he has made a big move.” Staring at the computer screen, Warren’s ballpoint pen in the hands of the brain, “Thesis, one of thesis is about the specific surface area of ​​hollow carbon spheres. The effect of pore size on the diffusion rate of polysulfide compounds, and the thesis on the research of HCS-1 hollow carbon sphere materials, the two thesis have certain relevance, the former focuses on theory, the latter focuses on application…how to do ?”

Bellock hesitated and said: “I feel that the academic reputation of Lu-Professor is still trustworthy. Is it better to give the reviewer the question of whether it is eligible for publication?”

Warren said with a headache: “I know, but the question is, who is this reviewer?”

This is indeed a problem.

There was also a touch of color on Bellock’s face.

“Thesis about HCS-1’s hollow carbon sphere material is good. Many professors who are doing carbon nanomaterials have the ability to review, but this other thesis…” I thought about it, he didn’t come up with a suitable one. Candidates.

Looking for mathematics Professor, there are not many people interested in Organic Chemistry. Looking for a big cow in the field of organic synthesis, there are very few people who can understand Lu Zhou thesis.

In the circle of organic materials, there are many people who do carbon nanomaterials, and there are many research teams that do hollow carbon spheres, but to do the calculation of materials… To be honest, it is too little.

Many people have changed their careers to become farmers, and their annual salary has doubled. And those who do not forget the initial heart, there are very few who can make a big cow.

Because of the miraculously-produced modified PDMS material, Lu Zhou has been crowned as a god by those who do computational materials, and counts on him to save them like David Shaw saves computational chemistry.

It is really hard to find a suitable candidate to find a professor who is qualified to give Lu Zhou a review.

After thinking for a moment, Bellock tried to propose: “Do you still contact the Bhavdi President?”

“But is he studying the direction of carbon nano?” Warren frowned. “And I heard that he was very busy recently and has already pushed away many review invitations for journals.”

“But he has been a reviewer for the Cross-Professor twice, and only he knows his thesis.” Bellock said, “still, you have a better candidate.”

“Then write a letter and trouble him again.” Hesitating for a moment, Warren immediately made the decision to drag the two thesis into the folder where important manuscripts were stored.

Regarding whether the two thesis are eligible for publication, he has not doubted it from the beginning.

If the shuttle effect can really be contained by this HCS-1 material, this result will undoubtedly be groundbreaking.

It is natural to be published in Science.
