Stephen D. Senturia · Journal of Microelectromechanical Systems · 2003
Editor’s Note: Stephen D. Senturia has been a member of the Board of Editors for IEEE/ASME JMEMS since the journal’s first issue in 1992 and was named a Senior Editor in 1998. This experience, coupled with his service from 1985–1995 as the Solid-State Sensors Editor for the IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices, adds up to 17 years in an editor’s chair. Over the years, Steve has kept mental notes on the myriad of problems that authors have with reviewers and has been inspired to compile the following “advice to the author” about ways to keep reviewers satisfied; hence, to keep them “at bay.”
