Cassyni and Springer Nature Extend Their Partnership
Cassyni Empowers Springer Nature Journals, Deepening Researcher Engagement Through Research Seminarsby Barbie Keiser The impact of technological advancements and shifting audience preferences for news production and consumption is evident in the transition from traditional print and broadcast media to digital platforms and new methods to disseminate and personalize news experiences. Similarly, the nature and process of environmental scanning for research articles and then identifying the appropriate academic community to begin a conversation about the research are evolving. Springer Nature’s Research Communities, powered in partnership with Zapnito, is “a free online platform for researchers and peers to connect, generate discussions and explore research findings that matter to them.” An extended partnership with Cassyni, a platform for research seminars, integrates Cassyni’s offerings into Research Communities. This collaboration allows any journal to “set up seminars to promote new journal issues, key research articles and calls for papers.” Embedding the Cassyni-hosted seminars into a journal’s website can attract and engage researchers from around the world. As Cassyni co-founder Andrew Preston notes, “Thanks to the ‘Cassyni Effect,’ a significant portion of this audience will subsequently cite and publish the journal hosting the seminars, contributing to the journal’s growth and success.” The platform’s communities include Agricultural & Food Science, Astronomy, Cancer, Chemistry, Computational Sciences, Earth & Environment, Genetics & Genomics, Mathematics, and Neuroscience. For more information, consult the press release and explore the seminars.
