Nature Masterclasses Webinar

Nature Masterclasses invites anyone interested in publishing research articles in the academic journal Nature to a webinar entitled ‘Strengthening Your Reviews: In Conversation with Nature Portfolio Editors’. The event will take place remotely on two dates.

How can I start my journey to publishing a review paper as an early-career researcher?
How do I refine the scope of my review to make sure it is comprehensive but still impactful?
To what extent can I voice my opinion in a review paper?

Here at Nature Masterclasses, we understand the powerful role that review papers play in the advancement of science. As a researcher, being able to write a great review paper will enable you to influence the way that your peers view the challenges, opportunities, and future directions of your field. Our revamped course “Writing and Publishing a Review Paper: 2nd Edition” (due to be released in October 2024) will provide you with practical skills to sharpen your review-writing and the confidence to navigate publishing your own reviews.

In this corresponding webinar, join Nature Portfolio review experts Giulia Pacchioni, Chief Editor of Nature Reviews Materials,and Olga Bubnova, Chief Editor of Nature Reviews Electrical Engineering,as they answer your questions on the challenges that you face when planning and writing a review paper.

Please note that any questions should be submitted during registration via the registration form. While we will attempt to answer as many questions as we can, in the interest of time, we may only be able to cover questions of common interest, so please keep your questions relevant to the topic of writing and publishing review papers.
