"I know how the paper you mentioned was sent. Sometimes, we cannot succumb to the threats of academic circles!"
Without waiting for Dr. Philip to explain further, Dean Brendan made a show of his voice: "Anfield had some achievements in the past, but now that he has left Desai, he is just an ordinary medical school dean. You should not rely on his recommendation.
Just trust blindly! You still have to go through the process!"
Like many other academic journals, "Continental Medicine" has a three-round review mechanism.
The first round is a preliminary review by the executive editor.
This link will filter out more than 90% of the submissions. You must know that as one of the few academic journals in the Old World, the editorial department has a very heavy workload. Only a few selected articles have the opportunity to enter the next round, and among them
Most of them will also be required to be modified.
The second round is the review by the review department and external review.
As mentioned above, today's audit department has five permanent deacons, one of whom serves as the rotating chairman, who changes every month. The chairman has the power to convene reviews, make recommendations and special permissions. The experts responsible for external audits are distributed
Throughout the Old World, they were generally top figures in various medical fields. Generally speaking, a paper would be sent to at least four experts in related fields.
It is also not easy to pass this round. Even if the paper is approved, it often needs a long time and repeated revisions before it can be finalized.
In contrast, the third round of editor-in-chief review is relatively easy. When it comes to this round, few manuscripts are rejected.
"You can take a taxi on the road, the car is already waiting for you below."
"This is impossible!"
Returning to the review department, although the five reviewers will change, the selection criteria are the same - they are all academic leaders within the Clovis Central Region.
He glanced at the others: "I think you all know what this means! The academic influence of the Old Continent is constantly declining. The reason is that research in emerging fields continues to lag behind. Nowadays, even researchers from the Old Continent
, will also give priority to "Global Medicine" in the New World and "Operating Table" in Jansa Island as the first choice platforms. In this case, we still have to miss such a paper? "
"How many companies did you submit for that paper?" Brendan interrupted the chatter on the other side.
Colin, who was talked about by everyone, was sitting on the tram.
When Dr. Philip's business-like tone came through the phone, the angry old dean could only worry because the extended LMW he was riding in had already left Desai City.
"certainly!"
"Bursenberg." The silver-haired Kliman kept smiling.
After cleaning the orange cat, he didn't even bother to eat. He hurriedly found a barber shop and simply dyed his hair. Although the effect was not good, it could be used as a temporary cover, and then he hurriedly started commuting to work.
road.
"I think Dr. Philip is right!" Ugo Cardona and others have already begun to take sides. They know very well what this paper means. "You should let Calvin think about it again."
"I believe Philip and the others are definitely trying their best to contact him, but maybe I am the first person to meet him."
The slender silver-haired man walked in and saluted the old man: "Hello, Professor Brendan Marty, I am Kliman from Disin Group. We have something to ask for your help."
Quiet.
"There is another paper! The content is very unfavorable to you!" Brendan did not hide it, "I will find a way to make a copy of that paper for you and have someone send it over. You will know after reading it!"
Brendan also has profound knowledge on demonic diseases and has accumulated a lot. After reading this paper, it was like having a window paper pierced. He could roughly distinguish between true and false. Naturally, he knew that what Philip said was not alarmist.
But how could Ugo Cardona and others be in the mood to worry about him? As soon as they left, they immediately started discussing it with great interest.
After a while, he hung up the phone amidst Calvin's puzzled inquiry, then turned over his hands before he came back to his senses.
On the same day, in the same publication, content in the same field is published, but the content is different. If one is right, the other will naturally be slapped in the face!
Brendan's eyes widened, and then he changed his words: "Wait a minute, I want to make a call."
After leaving the review department, Dean Brendan returned to his office. He suddenly remembered something, hurriedly took out his phone and dialed a number.
"Damn it, I left in such a hurry. I should have gotten my share back. Now I have to make one more trip."
He pointed at the copies of the paper placed on several people's desks and said sternly: "There is no point in arguing. Why not go back to the problem itself? Let's take a look at this paper. I think you will give a fair opinion."
judge."
In the end, Ugo Cardona couldn't help but say: "This paper is obviously groundbreaking. This may be an opportunity for us to surpass the New World! At least this time, there is a chance to surpass it."
Ugo Cardona even said directly: "I think the concerns of old Dean Brendan are also reasonable. If an external review is started and then the verification experiment is cooperated, it will be very time-consuming..."
"This is why I invited you all here," Dr. Philip saw the old guy's appearance and showed an elegant smile. "We will evaluate it together. If it passes, we will start an external review."
"Where are we going?" Brendan asked angrily.
Ugo Cardona, dean of the Central Academy of Medicine and chief consultant of the Clovis and Brussels Joint Research Center, asked casually when he picked up the paper.
"Don't you think that such results are indeed worthy of postponing the journal?" Dr. Philip asked: "This is also the reason why I think Calvin's research results should not be released, because there are differences between his research and the content of this paper.
Contradictions and conflicts! If Mr. Varlan’s research is correct, then Dr. Calvin’s conclusion will be overturned in the shortest possible time, which is not good for his reputation and commercial value.”
"who?"
They will not let themselves get the paper easily.
Beside, an unhurried voice sounded——
Many things are like a layer of window paper. If no one mentions it, it often takes several years, ten years, or even decades of detours to be discovered. Because no one has been involved in the past, there are too many directions to choose from.
, most of them are wrong, and trial and error will consume most people's energy and time.
The other three nodded secretly. Since they had been summoned, they had to read the contents anyway. Dean Brendan had no reason to object to this.
Mr. Ugo Cardona stopped and looked at each other. Finally, their eyes fell on Dean Brendan.
"Beyond Valdese? How is this possible!" Brendan stood up and walked out angrily, "Since you have made a decision and there are enough people, you don't need me to worry about it! I still say the same thing
Well, you shouldn’t be too eager to launch it!”
"Is there enough time?" Dean Brendan took a sharp breath and calmed down. "A sudden addition of an article may prevent the January issue from being printed on time!" He was trying to delay.
"About demonic illness." Dr. Philip replied simply: "The author of the paper summarized the characteristics of demonic illness."
"So, Dr. Philip, what is this paper about?"
"There was such a big movement yesterday, but in just a dozen hours, everything in the city has returned to normal. How did the authorities do it?"
"Okay, it looks like you are really in a hurry." Brendan felt ominous. He could probably guess that when he called the review department, those people would definitely guess what his purpose was.
.
Another person said: "I think we should get in touch with the author. There is no detailed contact information on the paper. This is so inappropriate!"
No matter how you calculate it, Brendan Marty is the oldest among the current reviewers. His life is legendary. Even now, as the director of Desai No. 1 Hospital, he
It has a decisive influence in both the academic and business circles.
Brendan did not continue to refute, but sneered and opened the paper in front of him. He glanced at it briefly, trying to find some content to criticize, but soon, his expression changed slightly.
the other side.
"I'm in a hurry right now." Brendan shook his head, "We'll talk about anything later."
Finally, they all looked at Philip.
The old man's face was ugly, and he said: "Are you going to use a paper on demonic diseases to replace the same paper on demonic diseases that Calvin spent several years with Waldser's full assistance?"
"I will communicate with Mr. Anfield in time. I think the old dean probably wants to hide Mr. Varlan." Dr. Philip smiled at each other, "Now, let us read it carefully first.
Let’s read it again! The content inside is also an important inspiration for us!”
Suddenly, Dean Brendan raised his head!
"There are four journals, three of them are from the New World, and the other one is "Continental Medicine" where you work. Of course, this is for your sake, otherwise I probably wouldn't choose a journal from the Old World." The phone call passed.
Here comes Calvin's question, "Why do you ask this?"
Of course, even a month away was enough for Calvin to become a laughing stock in the circle.
Sweat began to form on Brendan's forehead.
"Teacher, what's the matter?" Dr. Calvin's confident voice came out, and he spoke very quickly, "I guess it's because of the latest paper? Don't worry, the relevant experimental records are very
It will be sent to you soon..."
"The train better go faster, otherwise I'll be late for my afternoon shift."
"They can publish it at the same time." Dr. Philip sincerely suggested: "But I think it is best for you to let Calvin's paper be published. This is the best for him."
"Oh, I'm very willing to help, but this paper is too important, and the necessary procedures still need to be completed. Can't you come in person? What a pity, it will take some time!"
There was no sound on the phone for a while, and after a while, Calvin asked in confusion: "You mean to remove the article from "Continental Medicine" in order to avoid the principle? But I don't think it is necessary, because..."
On the opposite side, Ugo Cardona and others had opened the page earlier, so they had already seen the key parts. They all had their eyes widened, or frowned in thought, or looked hesitant.
"At the back are the reproduction materials of several phenomena mentioned in the paper by Mr. Anfield and his students," Dr. Philip understood what they wanted to ask.
Such a result was also foreseeable by the other three people. They did not participate in the debate, but stood aside and watched the changes. After all, Dr. Philip was also a senior academician of the Clovis Academy of Sciences, and as a descendant of a nobleman, he had a unique
General money and connections.
This is not the end yet, Dr. Philip then added: "As far as I know, this paper has only been sent to our family so far!"
"I know what you mean," Dr. Philip pushed up his glasses. "In another day, you will be the rotating chairman, but this article was submitted today, and it is still within my management scope! I must emphasize that I do not
Because the recommender is Mr. Anfield, it is biased!"
It's hard to offend either of the two people.
It took too much time to deal with Miss Petty and dye her hair, which made him a little pressed for time and a little anxious.
"Ha!" Brendan sneered, "Why do you want Calvin to give in?" He picked up the copy in front of his desk, "Colin B. Varland, who is this? You asked Calvin to be here
Backing off from a nobody?"
"What's your opinion?" Dr. Philip heard the implication.
"I hope you can calm down and let's discuss the matter." Philip motioned for others to open the paper and read it first. "In academic research, qualifications are of course important, but sometimes, when faced with groundbreaking research results,
Relying on connections and qualifications to force your way forward is not a wise choice."
Ugo Cardona smiled and said: "The four of us conducted reproduction experiments. As long as we can reproduce it, it is enough to make a judgment! I believe that people who read this paper will not think that we are arbitrary!"
For such an important, unpublished paper, he had to go there in person to get it back. If he wanted someone to do it for him, complicated procedures would be required.
Ugo Cardona and others were greatly moved. You must know that academic influence is real and can be realized, and it also helps their research projects. In comparison, Brendan's repeated obstruction seems
It's out of time.
However, when Brendan was about to leave, someone knocked on the door.
"Withdraw the paper!" the old dean said urgently.
"It makes sense! It makes sense!"
Another person nodded in agreement and said: "I can't wait to see the expressions of those associated with the journals in New Continent when the new issue of "Continental Medicine" is released! It's time for them to understand this backwardness.
It feels like one step away from others!”
"Bursonburg? Well, not too bad."
Dean Brendan actually calmed down because he remembered that the new student from Anfield was in Bursenberg.
However, when Colin saw the vehicles and pedestrians outside the car window looking as usual, a question popped into his mind——
It is worth mentioning that Dean Brendan is not only the rotating chairman next month, but also the teacher of Dr. Calvin Hull. Therefore, it is natural for him to object to Dr. Philip's proposal.
"I'm afraid not." The silver-haired Kliman took out a medal before the old man got angry. "This is what the Lord meant. I hope you can cooperate."
"Regarding the research on the characteristics of demonic diseases, Waldser is at the forefront! Secondly, there is Calvin's team!" His voice was urgent and high-pitched, trying to give himself confidence, "Their results will be better than those of others."
The last nobody? This is not fifty years ago!"
"Maybe I can give an explanation."
Dressed in black and translucent, Galmar Miller smiled and saluted Colin.
The second one may be later...
