Closing out my year with a journal editor shocker 🧵

Checking new manuscripts today I reviewed a paper attributing 2 papers to me I did not write. A daft thing for an author to do of course. But intrigued I web searched up one of the titles and that's when it got real weird...

Exactly.

Figures (outline)> Methods > Results > Discussion > Introduction > Abstract > Title
Interesting. For me/us it is figures before the paper. I typically try to get lab members to assemble a draft of all main figures and only then write the paper. Sometimes things move around during the writing.
