We recently attended our first researcher event with the American Chemical Society in Philadelphia - it was a great opportunity to speak with authors and find out how they are promoting their research and how we can help them increase impact. Furthermore, we recently launched our new campaign to help #mobilizeresearch - the campaign has already received great feedback from the research community, so be sure to come and find out how you can get involved, at one of these upcoming events:
