The workshop “How to get your paper published” was a success in its four dates thanks to the large, enthusiastic audience. The purpose of the event was to develop the researchers’ potential. “I learn the process and the best practices of publishing papers through experience. Now I can share what I learn with undergraduate and graduate students, as well as professors, so they can have better chances to publish,” concluded Hosseini.
