Producing research that is accessible, highly-cited, globally visible and impactful is no easy task. Aside from being quality research, it requires multiple other skill sets and competition is fierce.

There are over 3 million research articles written each year and even with pay-to-publish and 'light review' open access journals, only half will show up in international journals.

There are ways to improve writing skills and increase the chances of getting high-quality research published and Early Career Resources on Elsevier.com was created to gather a broad mix of training tools and career planning guides. Topics include career planning and funding, successful research writing, networking, mastering social media, ethics in research and publishing and search and discovery tools.
