How scientific research gets published, and how you can know how to trust it

Great article! I think it would be interesting to write out a timeline for the publishing process as well. I know it varies between different fields. For example, we had one paper go from concept to journal acceptance in 2 years (cell motility) and another paper take three years just to collect data (clinical research)!

Thank you, @tszasz!

Yeah, that's true. There are even lots of papers out there who have collected data for 30+ years, so the timeframe could be pretty much anything.
