AGRICRAFT, a new project launched by YPARD Nepal, is excited to invite 30 young professionals into its first webinar entitled Publishing Scientific Articles: What Should You Know? on 7- 8th November 2020.
Our world-class young scientists who have good records of publications, reviewing/editorial experiences and follow peer-to-peer learning methods will share their knowledge, experiences and guidance to newcomers who are looking for an opportunity to improve scientific writing skills and get published in reputed journals. This webinar can be highly effective for those students who have recently completed any field or lab works and ready for data analysis, develop a manuscript and thinking about potential journals for their work. It also includes information related to the peer-review process and publication ethics.
