MWCL letter 被拒
有没有投过IEEE Microwave and Wireless Components Letters的虫友啊？急需经验帮助，昨天收到了主编的邮件，论文被拒了，但是给出的三个审稿人的意见都是一些 Minor revisions。 而编辑的回信却是结合三个审稿人的意见，认为本文lack of novelty，有申述的必要吗？
可以试试，但不要抱太大的希望。 同意楼上所说，可以再突出一下你的新颖性。可能是编辑对你的文章兴趣不大。 你可以详细说明下你文章主要的创新点在哪儿 顺便问下 你的文章审了多久啊 : Originally posted by 田恩远 at
你可以详细说明下你文章主要的创新点在哪儿 顺便问下 你的文章审了多久啊 审了整整两个月，感觉审稿人的意见很好，我想按照意见修改一下转投其他letter ，今天听我们师兄说，现在SCI审稿全面加速了，以后可能就不用再等那么久了 楼主现在转投得怎样啊？MWCL现在貌似很难，要求很高，经常4个审稿人，我之前也是Reject and Resubmission MWCL现在貌似很难，要求很高，经常4个审稿人，而且审稿6月之久，很郁闷！ 有没有最近投的筒子，求交流！！！！！

如何写response to decision letter
在投递修改搞时有一项是response to decision letter如何写啊？
一一回复审稿人意见 即可 Originally posted by ashen8212 at
一一回复审稿人意见 即可 那和cover letter 有什么区别啊？内容都差不多。 Originally posted by xuezhaoteng at
那和cover letter 有什么区别啊？内容都差不多。 cover letter是投稿时递交的，一般介绍文章的大致内容和保证一些不一稿多投等问题的吧~
而response to reviewers是递交修改稿是要写的，是把审稿人指出的比较大的问题做一个回答，并在文章中修改，而小问题就直接在文中修改即可。 Originally posted by seagullnin at

我的是小修，只是把里面的字体颜色改过来，我写的这两部分一样，每多大区别，应该没事吧。 那我觉得写写都修改了哪些就行了…… 可以这样写：
cover letter就是个大概，3，4句就行，说我们仔细考虑了评审意见做出了修改，详细请见response部分
然后response分两部分：
1.point by point response
2.list of changes
个人觉得这样可以比较清楚地表达

E-mail： & QQ：8835100关于学术论文投稿中的&Cover&Letter
关于学术论文投稿中的 Cover
学术期刊报道原始研究工作的论文，一般分为需要快速发表的通信、快报类（communication,
letter等）和报道系统研究工作的全文类（full paper, article）两种形式。投这两种文章，cover letter和论文Introduction的写法是不同的。
对于需要以通讯或快报形式快速发表的工作，可以是初步的研究结果(preliminary
result)，强调的是工作的新颖性和重要性，因此，cover letter和论文中的Introduction怎么写，就很重要，千万不能只是客套几句，cover letter是写给主编（或编辑），如果他觉得新颖性没有足够的吸引力，审都不必审了。cover letter一般不会给审稿人，所以，说服审稿人你的工作值得快速发表，就是论文的Introduction了，不必长篇回顾，直接强调与众不同的新颖性，要写得吸引眼球。
如果是报道系统工作的全文，cover letter和论文Introduction需要注重写你的工作解决了什么科学问题，介绍你工作的完整性。特别是Introduction，要对前人相关的工作做一个回顾（有的论文甚至写成一个小的review），当然，与众不同之处也是要说的，没有新颖性的工作就不是研究论文了。除了那些专门发表通讯、快报的杂志，一般的杂志，通信快报类的文章只占所有文章的很少一部分（不到10%），所以，难度可想而知。如果没有足够的新颖性说服编辑和审稿人你的工作需要快速发表，最好还是把工作做全了发full paper。

Dear Editor,
We would like to submit the enclosed manuscrīpt entitled "GDNF
Acutely Modulates Neuronal Excitability and A-type Potassium
Channels in Midbrain Dopaminergic Neurons", which we wish to be
considered for publication in Nature Neuroscience.
GDNF has long been thought to be a potent neurotrophic factor for
the survival of midbrain dopaminergic neurons, which are
degenerated in Parkinson’s disease. In this paper, we report an
unexpected, acute effect of GDNF on A-type potassium channels,
leading to a potentiation of neuronal excitability, in the
dopaminergic neurons in culture as well as in adult brain slices.
Further, we show that GDNF regulates the K+ channels through a
mechanism that involves activation of MAP kinase. Thus, this study
has revealed, for the first time, an acute modulation of ion
channels by GDNF. Our findings challenge the classic view of GDNF
as a long-term survival factor for midbrain dopaminergic neurons,
and suggest that the normal function of GDNF is to regulate
neuronal excitability, and consequently dopamine release. These
results may also have implications in the treatment of Parkinson’s
Due to a direct competition and conflict of interest, we request
that Drs. XXX of Harvard Univ., and YY of Yale Univ. not be
considered as reviewers. With thanks for your consideration, I
Sincerely yours,
Dear Editor,
We would like to submit the enclosed manuscrīpt entitled
"Ca2+-binding protein frequenin mediates GDNF-induced potentiation
of Ca2+ channels and transmitter release", which we wish to be
considered for publication in Neuron.
We believe that two aspects of this manuscrīpt will make it
interesting to general readers of Neuron. First, we report that
GDNF has a long-term regulatory effect on neurotransmitter release
at the neuromuscular synapses. This provides the first
physiological evidence for a role of this new family of
neurotrophic factors in functional synaptic transmission. Second,
we show that the GDNF effect is mediated by enhancing the
expression of the Ca2+-binding protein frequenin. Further, GDNF and
frequenin facilitate synaptic transmission by enhancing Ca2+
channel activity, leading to an enhancement of Ca2+ influx. Thus,
this study has identified, for the first time, a molecular target
that mediates the long-term, synaptic action of a neurotrophic
factor. Our findings may also have general implications in the cell
biology of neurotransmitter release.

Dear Editor of the [please type in journal title or acronym]:
Enclosed is a paper, entitled "Mobile Agents for Network
Management." Please accept it as a candidate for publication in the
[journal title]. Below are our responses to your submission
requirements.
1. Title and the central theme of the article.
Paper title: "Mobile Agents for Network Management." This study
reviews the concepts of mobile agents and distributed network
management system. It proposes a mobile agent-based implementation
framework and creates a prototype system to demonstrate the
superior performance of a mobile agent-based network over the
conventional client-server architecture in a large network
environment.
2. Which subject/theme of the Journal the material fits
New enabling technologies (if no matching subject/theme, enter
'Subject highly related to [subject of journal] but not listed by
[please type in journal title or acronym])
3. Why the material is important in its field and why the material
should be published in [please type in journal title or
The necessity of having an effective computer network is rapidly
growing alongside the implementation of information technology.
Finding an appropriate network management system
has become increasingly important today's distributed environment.
However, the conventional centralized architecture, which routinely
requests the status information of local units by the central
server, is not sufficient to manage the growing requests. Recently,
a new framework that uses mobile
agent technology to assist the distributed management has emerged.
The mobile agent reduces network traffic, distributes management
tasks, and improves operational performance. Given today's
bandwidth demand over the Internet, it is important for the
[journal title/acronym] readers
to understand this technology and its benefits. This study gives a
real-life example of how to use mobile agents for distributed
network management. It is the first in the literature that reports
the analysis of network performance based on an operational
prototype of mobile agent-based distributed
network. We strongly believe the contribution of this study
warrants its publication in the [journal title/acronym].

The Basics of Cover Letter Writing
By Richard M. Reis
Your cover letter and curriculum vita may well be the most important documents you will ever write. They are the first things most academic search committees see, and if you don't want them to also be the last things, you need to take the time to do them right.
Although both your cover letter and C.V. must be able to stand on their own, they are clearly linked and so should be developed in tandem.
In this column we will look at the cover letter. Next month we will examine the science C.V.
Most applicants write poor cover letters that bear no relationship to what goes on in a particular department or school. They are word-processed form letters, and search committees can spot them right away.
"In almost no time we can reject half our applicant pool just by looking at their cover letters," says Susan Lord, associate professor of electrical engineering at the University of San Diego.
You can also be sure that at least some applicants for a given position will write excellent cover letters. As one engineering professor at San Jose State University, put it: "I took the time to tailor my cover letter to the school and department. This took a lot of research, but it paid off." Her letter resulted in an interview, and an eventual job offer.
If the committee receives hundreds of applications, it will probably divide them up so that one or, at most, two members will look at your application the first time around. These professors, whom you are not likely to know, determine whether you are among the 15 to 20 applicants who will be moved to the next stage, or whether you are out of the game. It's crucial for your cover letter to engage and excite the search committee to the point that they look forward to examining the rest of your application material.
So one of your most important tasks in your job hunt is to find out enough about the college to which you are applying to show the connection between what you have to sell and what the college wants to buy. Pointing out this connection in a one-page letter is no easy task and can be time-consuming. But everything you do by way of preparation will be helpful if you are then asked to visit the campus for an interview.
Let's take a look at how one successful candidate (the author mentioned above) approached her cover letter. Below is her letter, with a few minor changes to protect confidential material.
Name of search committee chairpersonAddress
Dear Professor:
I am responding to your advertisement in the [name of journal] for a faculty position in the Materials Engineering Department at San Jose State University. I am a Ph.D. candidate at Stanford University in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering. My thesis work is in the area of process modeling for semiconductor fabrication and my specific research topic is the diffusion of dopants in gallium arsenide. My thesis advisor is Professor [name], Director of the Integrated Circuits Laboratory in the Department of Electrical Engineering.
I am particularly interested in a faculty position in a department that values teaching. As you may note from my r&sum&, I have taken every opportunity to teach while at Stanford University, and I have also participated in various educational projects outside of the university environment. These included the Computer Literacy Project, which I founded and directed for three years in a predominantly minority middle school in [city], and Expanding Your Horizons at San Jose State University, a workshop for young women interested in pursuing careers in math and science. At Stanford University, in addition to being a grader and teaching assistant in several electrical engineering courses in semiconductor processing, I helped design and teach a materials science and engineering laboratory course. I also designed and co-taught a new course for undergraduates entitled Electronic Materials Science.
In addition to teaching, I am looking for a research opportunity that would allow me to continue my work in electronic materials processing, structure and properties. At Stanford University I have accomplished original research in pursuit of my degree, as well as contributed to the development of a fabrication line for GaAs digital technology. While working at [name] Corporation I designed and supervised construction of a thin film laboratory research facility and initiated a research project in amorphous semiconductor thin films.
I expect to finish my degree in [date]. I have enclosed my curriculum vita, including a list of publications, a list of references, and a copy of my passport as proof of U.S. citizenship. Thank you for your consideration. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Very truly yours,
name/address/telephone number
What are the general principles shown here that can be applied to most cover letters?
Notice that the letter is addressed to a specific individual using his or her correct title. (If the advertisement for the position says only, "Chairman, Search Committee," try calling the department secretary for the name of the chairperson.)
In the first paragraph the author explains how she heard about the position ("Your announcement in ... " At the suggestion of ..."), and who she is ("I am completing my Ph.D. in ... under the direction of ... ").
In the second paragraph she explains why she is interested in the position and the department. Through her background research (discussions with San Jose State faculty members and perusal of the university's Web site), she knows that the institution places a high value on teaching. So she goes into some detail on her various teaching experiences, including such things as the design and development of a new course.
In the third paragraph she provides a more detailed overview of her research, including her industrial experience.
The key in both the second and third paragraphs is to highlight your achievements and qualifications, especially those that make you the right person for the position. You want to connect items in your background with the specific needs of the department.
At smaller colleges or universities you should try to point out your interests in the institution as well as the department. At larger colleges or universities such as San Jose State, you can concentrate more on your interests in the department.
In the final paragraph the author indicates what she is enclosing and offers to provide extra materials or additional information. She thanks the committee for its consideration and indicates that she is looking forward to meeting with them in the near future.
Ideally, the cover letter should be one page, and while content is more critical than style, how you write as well as what you say is certainly important. In all cases, use simple, direct language.
It is also critical that your letter be free of errors. This may seem obvious, but search committees see plenty of letters with mistakes. The readers will assume you had all the time you needed to put the letter together and so are likely to be unforgiving of typographical and spelling errors. Have it proofread by at least one other person.
The above example and general comments are just guidelines. Each letter must be tailored to the specific circumstances of each position. However, if you follow the principles outlined here, you significantly increase the chance that the search committee will take the next step of looking for your enclosed C.V.
How to make your C.V., the document that prompts the committee chair to pick up the phone and invite you to an interview, will be the subject of next month's column.
