On a broader scale, increased publication encourages a diversity of voices contributing to and advancing the field of medical knowledge. In this article, we present a guide for those looking to engage more deeply in medical education (MedEd) research and scholarship.

Next, we discuss an eight-step process to prepare for publication: (1) formulate the idea, (2) implement the project, (3) select the appropriate journal, (4) write the paper, (5) submit the manuscript, (6) receive journal feedback, (7) revise the manuscript, and (8) resubmit the manuscript.
