Representatives of MU-Varna attended
the 3rd International Symposium of Scientific Journals, organized by Trakya
University, Edirne (Turkey), which took place from 4th to 6th
December 2018. A large team of MU-Varna, including representatives of the
academic management, editors, reviewers, authors, the university publishing
centre and the library, participated at the event, which was under the title
"How to become successful authors and editors of scientific journals?"
The lecturers at the symposium - Pippa
Smart, President of the European Association of Science Editors (EASE) and Prof. Ana Marusic, former EASE President
and Chair of the World Association of Medical Editors (WAME), summed up the good
practices and wrong policies when publishing a scientific paper and issuing a
scientific journal.
The participation at the
International Symposium is a part of the policy for enhancing the quality and
visibility of periodicals, which MU -Varna has been pursuing for years. The
idea is the future cooperation to continue with a forthcoming invitation to the
lecturers to present the current guidelines for authors and editors of scientific
journals to a wider audience at MU - Varna.
