Question: does other people think your work is good ?

As a scientist if you get new, good results then you can publish them in a journal (a bit like a magazine). Before you can do this though, about 4 or 5 different scientists and editors have to read what you have written to make sure that it is correct. If they think that it is correct and good then they will let you publish your results. I am fortunate enough to have had some of my work published so I guess that must mean that other people think that my work is good 🙂
