An introduction to NIHR Open Research - DEMENTIA RESEARCHER

"This session will introduce the open publishing and peer review model used by NIHR Open Research, including advice for first-time authors and NIHR grantees. 

NIHR Open Research provides all NIHR-funded researchers with a place to publish any results they think are worth sharing. Submissions to NIHR OR are subject to editorial checks that ensure the robustness, quality, and transparency of the underlying research. Following these checks, articles are published Open Access before peer review, so that they can be viewed and cited as quickly as possible. Expert reviewers are then selected and invited, and their reports and names are published alongside the article, post-publication.

This webinar will include a presentation on the publication requirements for NIHR Open Research, and the submission, revision, and post-publication open peer review workflows. We will provide advice for authors on how to ensure that submissions meet the requirements for open publishing, and how to engage with the revision and peer review process that follows – and you will also have the opportunity to hear from a NIHR grantee and NIHR Open Research author about their experience of using the platform to publish their research. There will be a Q&A and the session will be recorded for registrants who are unable to attend live."
