Join Digital Science at the 20th Annual Meeting of ISMPP as it centres on the art and science of medical publications and communications, and the power of its impact to humanize healthcare.
The theme of this year’s conference is Storytelling: Its Art and Power. People are more likely to remember information conveyed through stories compared with dry facts and statistics alone. Storytelling can distill complex concepts, making them more understandable and easier to digest, fostering empathy, establishing trust and helping to dispel stigmas and misinformation.
Digital Science are delighted to be exhibiting once again at this conference, come and visit us at stand 31 in the exhibit hall.
You can also check out our parallel session:
“What’s a “good” journal anyway?”
10:45 AM – 11:30 AM on Tuesday 30th April
In this interactive, enlightening, and hopefully entertaining, workshop, you’ll get to discuss ideas of what makes a good journal – and even paper. Dive into the maths of some of the world’s best known journal indicators, learn why they’re not fit for purpose and discuss the future of journal selection.
Learning objectives:
- What makes a good journal
- The restraints of current journal indicators
- The future of journal selection
