Session overview

Publishing research is a vital part of the scientific process, but the process can raise lots of questions. How do you know which journal is the right one for your research? What happens during peer-review? What does Open Access mean and why does it matter? What is an Impact Factor?

Join this virtual chat with our Senior Publisher, Simon Buckmaster, to have your questions answered in an informal Q & A and join discussions with peers about the publishing process. Simon will also give a brief introduction to the Society’s journals and the benefits that Society members receive when publishing in its journals. This session welcomes all Society members involved or interested in research.
