Publishing Training
Organised by:
Online webinar 15.00 – 16.00
Synopsis
Founded in 1882, SCI launched its inaugural journal, 'The Society of Chemical Industry'. Since then, the Society has established eight additional peer-reviewed journals, solidifying its global leadership in publications dedicated to translating chemistry and related sciences into industry for societal benefit.
SCI's dedication to impactful research extends beyond its established journals. In 2025, the organisation introduced SCI Sustainability, a Gold Open Access transdisciplinary journal devoted to pioneering research addressing sustainability challenges in scientific industries.
In this training:
- Nageen Matlub, SCI's Publisher, will discuss the SCI journal portfolio and the pivotal role of early career researchers in academic publishing.
- Steve Duke, Editor of SCI’s Pest Management Science journal, will explore current trends and potential pitfalls in scientific publishing. His talk will cover topics such as peer review processes, publication ethics, and Open Access.
- We will also hear from early career editorial board members of SCI journals, Joseph Oddy and Saurabh Pandey who will talk about their work and publishing experiences.
This online event offers early career researchers a valuable opportunity to gain insights into academic publishing. It will emphasise the significance of engaging with scientific journals and the impact of publishing research findings.
Attending this session can provide guidance on navigating the publication process, understanding peer review roles, and enhancing research dissemination. It's a chance to learn from experts and connect with peers in the field.
