The Editor’s Role in Publishing at Chem and Some Advice for Scientific Writing

Abstract: Ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes when you submit a manuscript to a journal? Dr. Gillian Hatzis, a Scientific Editor at Chem, will discuss publishing at Cell Press, her editorial process for handling submitted works, give some advice on how to write more effectively for any audience, and share how she began her career as an editor.

Learning from Lab Accidents and the Principles of Safe Research

Every laboratory researcher must continuously address a key question: What makes the laboratory safe and how can safety outcomes be improved? Laboratory safety is a clear and common goal whether one is a researcher, supervisor, principal investigator or EH&S professional, but the approaches vary. This presentation will examine actions by researchers that improve safety and reduce accidents in laboratories. Recent cases of laboratory accidents in universities will be discussed in the context of ten principles of safe research that can serve as a guide for planning safer experiments.

Insights into the role of complex oxides in nuclear energy applications

The ongoing decarbonization efforts in the United States require a combination of various energy technologies with a low carbon foot print, including nuclear energy. A summary of recent progress in nuclear materials chemistry involved in the synthesis and performance of advanced nuclear fuels, as well as their disposal to increase the safety and efficiency of the nuclear energy sector will be presented.
