Planning and Placing for Publication - Guidance for IP Scholars | Institute of Brand and Innovation Law - UCL

Planning and Placing for Publication - Guidance for IP Scholars Webinar - 13:00 to 14:30 (BST) on 15 June 2023

Before you head off for a summer of research, the UCL Institute of Brand and Innovation Law (IBIL) and Oxford Intellectual Property Research Centre are jointly hosting a webinar for IP scholars to provide guidance on how to choose the best outlet for your research. This event is particularly aimed at Early Career Researchers and final year PhD students, but we would welcome more senior scholars, and there will be a chance to share experiences and advice in the Q&A.

The webinar, hosted by IBIL’s Professor Ilanah Fhima and OIPRC’s Professor Dev Gangjee, will bring together a distinguished panel of IP academics with a wealth of knowledge and experience to provide their own perspective on publication placement.
