Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs): Science and Policy
22 April 2021
Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are global contaminants. Scientific advances on formation mechanisms, environmental behaviour, control techniques and national policy aim to reduce the presence of POPs. An increasing number of new chemicals are found to be persistent in environment and harmful to human health. New POPs are identified and added to international legislation. This webinar will discuss science, techniques and policy in relation to emerging POPs and related fields.

The Role and Function of an Editor – Mentor and Gatekeeper
10 June 2020
Good editors serve as mentors, with the assistance of the reviewers, they provide authors with guidance on what needs to be done to make a paper publishable.

Learn more about the editors’ role in this free webinar.
Changing Research Evaluation Policies in China – Insights and Impact
19 May 2020
In February 2020, China’s Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST) and Ministry of Education (MoE) published policy documents to initiate a steer away from assessing research by the number of articles published and SCI listed journals to a focus on publishing a limited number of high quality papers. In this free webinar our speakers will provide insights into the background of these policy announcements and their potential impact on publishers, research institutions and researchers.
