Recommendations
What to publish
Try to generate several articles from the most importantchapters of your thesis
Redouble e�ort if you have a solid hit in one area
Diversify research topics for possible publication
It's risky to continue publishing in the same area without clearevidence of success
Don't put two good ideas in one paper, separate them intotwo papers
Collaborate with a colleague or fellow researcher, �nd a topicand begin a series of focused investigations
