Workshop "RG Language Meets the Editor"

Event

Starts on
08.10.25

Kiel

Event access: Internal

When publishing in scientific journals, it becomes clear time and again how strongly language influences the success of scientific papers – not only in peer review, but also in their visibility and reception within the scientific community.

In this workshop, the participants will discuss language as a central element of scientific quality and impact together with a professional (‘in-house’) editor of a Nature journal with a social and/or natural science focus. In the central Nature journals, the decision to publish a manuscript is made by the journal's editors, who are PhD scientists and are supposed to assess the relevance of the research. A particular focus will be on the tension between increasing (mathematical) formalisation and linguistic accessibility.

    • Summer Academy: "Resistant and Interdisciplinary – Ethnography as Epistemic Practice"

      Ethnographic research has now found its way into many disciplines – and yet its epistemological premises, political implications and potential for resistance are often given too little consideration. The Summer Academy provides a forum for discussing ethnography as a contested epistemological practice within various disciplinary contexts.
