“conpher with the pros”
conpher has gathered together an expert panel of advisors from around the world consisting of publishers, research support advisors, academic and life coaches and experienced researchers.
Each week we will provide their expert opinions and advice and answer questions and queries received from you with regards to your research careers and publishing queries.
For example: a senior colleague is advising you to submit to a journal they favour, but the majority of your writing team prefer another title. How should you handle this decision?
or… if I have an option between a paywall journal and an Open Access journal, which should I choose?
We are here to help you, so if you have a query, question or a challenge for the panel, please send it to info@conpher.com and we will try to share our knowledge and experiences.
Get Involved! It takes seconds, but it could save your colleagues months of stress!
