On Tuesday, May 26 at noon we will be hosting a special webinar with Lexi Voss, the Biomedical Library’s Visualizationist, on the basics of using Adobe Illustrator for scientific figures. This is a great opportunity for folks who are new to the program and want to learn the basics in a workshop geared toward scientists instead of graphic designers.

Registration is required to receive workshop materials.

SDS: Preprints in Conversation

SDS: Preprints in Conversation
The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the importance and impact of preprint servers like never before. But are these tools right for you? What do preprints mean for exposure? Trainees? Research quality?
Join us on Tuesday, July 21 at 1 PM EDT for a seminar with our own Joel Boerckel, Ph.D.: “Preprints in Conversation: An Argument for Preprint Adoption by Researchers in the IRM.” Joel will be discussing his personal experience with preprints and sharing why he thinks this tool is ripe for widespread use. Come learn more about this science communication strategy and discuss the state of preprints in 2020, whether you have used them or not.
Hope to see you there!
