What do you actually do when your PI keeps delaying your paper submission? I’ve done all the edits and the figures, but it’s been sitting for months. Do I push harder or risk burning that bridge? I hate feeling stuck because of someone else’s timeline.

I would be polite follow ups and do your best to try to push things along. You can only do what you can do, but it's worth exhausting all of your resources.

I would do a polite follow up as well. I always just explain how it is making me feel. Make it about you and not about them.

This is hard but the way I did it in the past was scheduled a meeting and talked through timelines for submission

Maybe the wait is for a certain issue

Oh my that’s so hard but I would definitely follow up in person and ask when a good time to follow up so it looks like you’re being nice and taking that burden on to remind
