                                             The worldwide author community now has a dynamic new way to select
                                             the most appropriate journal in which to publish. As part of its mission to
                                             help scientists communicate their research globally, Edanz has launched
                                             the free-to-use Journal Selector as part of its Journal Advisor platform.
                                             Journal Selector, which indexes over 18,000 journals, uses state of the art
                                             semantic technology to match an authors research to journals that
                                             publish articles on similar topics.




                                             The Journal Selector is freely available here:

                                             speakers, with tools and services to help them overcome barriers to
                                             publication success. It also includes guides and videos that inform
                                             authors about the publication process.

How to use it                                                   3. Narrow your options
Using Journal Selector, authors enter a brief description
of their research. Users can input a whole abstract, rather
than just the few terms or phrases that current academic
and science search tools allow. Journal Selector then
matches the authors research to journals that are
publishing articles on similar topics. After selecting a
journal, authors can then use Edanz educational
resources and services to improve the language of their
manuscript, write a cover letter, and prepare for
submission and peer review.
