Research Culture Special Issue 2024/25: Call for Expressions of Interest

2024-10-02

Following the highly successful publication in August ’24 of a special issue drawn from the 2023 IRCC (International Research Culture Conference) event, the National Centre for Research Culture at Warwick has partnered once again with the Exchanges interdisciplinary research journal to publish a second volume based on this year’s conference. Speakers and poster presenters are therefore invited to submit papers based on their event contributions, while delegates may consider offering reflective pieces based on reflections from their attendance. It is anticipated two volumes of the special issue will be published during summer 2025.

Expressions of Interest

All delegates should have received an email from the NCRC with links and further information on how to submit your expression of interest.

Expressing an interest is a twostep process:

(1) Potential contributors should firstly submit an expression of interest via the online form no later than 1/Nov/2024.

(2) These will be reviewed by the editorial team, with successful authors formally invited to submit their final manuscripts by the deadlines listed below.

While papers are once again primarily encouraged within Exchanges’ highly popular editorially-reviewed critical reflections format, some authors may wish to consider a longer peer-reviewed article. It is strongly advised these authors discuss the possibility with the Editor ahead of submission. Additionally, we are looking for volunteers to get involved in the production of the issue as associate editors, especially from the early career research community.
