当SCI期刊编辑收到稿件的时候，首先会查看的内容便是投稿信（Cover Letter）。通过投稿信中的内容，期刊编辑能最快的了解稿件的研究方向和探究结果，凭借着这些印象再去决定是否详细阅读稿件的具体内容。
今天MedGy就给大家介绍一下SCI投稿信件的写作注意事项及通用模板。
01
信件要点
简要阐述你的方法，解释为什么你的方法很重要，并且能吸引期刊的受众(文章的意义)。
阐述你的工作有何新颖之处，并指出你的工作和前人相比有何提高的地方(文章的主要内容和优点)。
推荐审稿人(编辑为了工作方便当然希望你推荐审稿人，可以不推荐)。
提交你的相关工作(一般期刊无此要求)。
交代可能的异常情况，比如和 XX 课题组是竞争关系，不要送审到他们那里。
是否以前和期刊的编辑已经讨论过(一般有讨论过的会直接送到那个编辑手里，一般不用写)
01
信件切忌
不要直接拷贝文章的标题和摘要。
投稿信要简洁，一般一页足以。不要总结你的所有结果。
不要用高度专业的词汇。记住投稿信是给编辑看以帮助他们更快找到审稿人的。
不要过度“吹捧”你的方法。过度高估你的工作反而会反映出作者对该领域的判断不足。
不要在投稿信中写自己多牛逼。人家编辑判断的是你文章的价值，而不是你个人的价值。
不要用 “Dear Sir”，因为很多编辑都是女的。可以用中性词 “Dear Editor”
