General Information

The Letters Incubator offers the opportunity for key opinion leaders to develop new publishing ideas while mentoring the future talents of the microbiology community.

The goals of this Letters incubator proposal form are both to help Series Editor(s) and the Editor-in-Chief/ Section Editor to agree on the details of the Thematic Issue/Thematic Series, and to help FEMS and Oxford University Press to target promotional activities to the right audiences to maximise high quality submissions, readership, citation and impact.

The more detail you can add here, the more effective our communications can be.

Thanks very much for your help!
