When to Publish? Perspectives of North African researchers in the medical field

Knowing when to publish can make all the difference. Submitting a manuscript at the right time - whether it is shortly after completing data analysis, when the topic is gaining attention, or in response to a specific call for papers - can significantly increase a study's visibility and impact. However, timing alone is not enough. With the right training, thoughtful journal selection, and strong institutional support, researchers - especially those in low- and middle-income countries - can overcome many of the barriers they face and share their work more effectively with the global scientific community.
