Contributing to a scientific journal can be intimidating, but publishing your practice innovations is critical to move the lactation field forward . If you are not in academia, but have a good idea, how do you move it from idea to publication? The Journal of Human Lactation believes in the ideas that are generated in the field and provides opportunities to publish using a variety of formats. We will be discussing the common pitfalls in scientific publishing for new authors and covering tips and tricks that can make submitting a manuscript more approachable.

Learning Objectives:

Explore the challenges of moving innovative lactation practice techniques or advocacy into research journals
Define formats that can simplify publication of lactation practice techniques or advocacy
State one “tip” or “trick” for submitting a practice or advocacy manuscript to the Journal of Human Lactation.
