09:30 – 10:30 |
Webinar: “The what, who, why and how of preprints” Author: Iratxe Puebla, ASAPBio Summary: A preprint is a scientific manuscript uploaded and made available by the authors to a public server. They contain data and methodology descriptions and have not yet been accepted by a scientific journal. Because journal publication can be slow and unpredictable, preprints provide a mechanism for rapidly communicating research. However, there are some arguments against it, and unintended consequences are possible. Yet, when well manage, preprints allow scientists direct control of the dissemination of their work. |
|
|
10:30 – 11:30 |
Webinar: “The FAIR Data Principles” Author: Connie Clare, 4TU.ResearchData Summary: How could we ensure that our research data do not disappear after the research is finished? Good data management in the scientific environment is fundamental to allow easy access, innovation, and reuse by the community after publication. FAIR data are datasets that meet the principles of findability, accessibility, interoperability, and reusability. |

11:30 – 12:30 |
Round table: “Science communication on social media” Panel members: TBD Panelists: Isabel Mendoza, PhD. Chief Communications Officer. The Global Plant Council Mary Williams, PhD od Philisophy · Plant Molecular Biology. ASPB Geraint Parry, PhD of Philosophy · Plant Science. MASC Summary: Communicating science is gaining more and more importance in the everyday life of researchers. In the age of fake news and misinformation, making science accessible is becoming a shared responsibility of scientific institutions and individual researchers. In this panel, we will jointly discuss examples of how to face (successfully) this particular challenge on social media. |

Sesiones transversales//
Woman in Science
Chairman: Maite Lacuesta.
-
In this session of Women in Science, the current situation of the role of women in science and how it has changed (if this is the case) will be evaluated. The barriers limiting the improvement of the figures will be reviewed, whether external (conjunctural and structural; glass ceiling, sexism, paternalism …), or internal (self-exclusion, family responsibilities, perfectionism, insecurity …). Different actions that can reverse this situation will be reviewed, and we will have as well the male’s point of view. In addition, some scientists will tell ushow they have lived their scientific career.
Invited speakers include Luisa María Sandalio (Research Professor at the Zaidín Experimental Station – CSIC Granada); Sara I. Zandalinas (Senior Research Associate – Bond Life Sciences Center, University of Missouri-Columbia). Premio Sabater 2019. Premio FESPP 2021; Nuria De Diego Sánchez (Senior Researcher-Centre of the Region Haná for Biotechnological and Agricultural Research, Olomouc, Czech Republic); Jaume Martínez (Research Scientist in the IBMPC, CSIC-UPV); Carmen Fenoll (Plant Physiology Professor- University of Castilla La Mancha, Toledo).
Teaching Innovation
Organised of: Nuria Pedrol, Rogelio Santiago and Juan Segura
-
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on university teaching practices. Without a doubt, the most significant effect of this pandemic has been making online teaching and learning the priority instructional format in Higher Education. We will discuss with selected speakers whether online teaching and learning are effective methods compared to face-to-face lessons. In addition, innovative tools for teaching in Plant Physiology will be presented (Moodle 3.9, Microsoft Teams, Drones and Satellites, Kahoot, Citizen Science, and much more).
Invited speakers include José Díaz (Full Professor of Plant Physiology at University of A Coruña), Raquel Esteban (Assistant Professor of Plant Physiology at University of the Basque Country), Jose Luis Acebes (Full Professor of Plant Physiology at University of León), Ursue Pérez-López (Associate Professor of Plant Physiology at University of the Basque Country), Herminia E. Prieto Martínez (Professor of Plant Mineral Nutrition at Federal University of Viçosa, Brazil).
Science publications
Chairman: Gustavo Slafer
-
The aim of this session is to discuss ideas (pros and cons) on whether (and, if yes, how) we shall have into account the journal IF when deciding where to publish our work. The focus of the discussion will be on two specific issues: whether or not the journal IF is relevant (i) to maximise the impact of the individual papers, and/or (ii) to receive adequate recognition when the quality of the paper is evaluated.
Invited speakers include Enrique Playan (Director of AEI), Jorge Hirsch (who created in 2005 the h-index) and Manuel J. Reigosa (Dean of the University of Vigo).
Scientific Dissemination
Organised of: Unidad de Cultura Científica - UVigo (who will also moderate the session).
-
La divulgación científica es una de las funciones básicas de la universidad, junto con las actividades de formación, investigación y promoción de la cultura. La importancia de la comunicación de la actividad investigadora al público general reside en su futuro papel como motor de desarrollo socioeconómico.
Por eso, en esta sesión profundizaremos en la importancia de la divulgación científica y en las claves para realizarla de una forma adecuada, de tal forma que podamos llegar a nuestro público objetivo.Oradoras: Marta Crespo Cruces y Lucía Calvo López (Técnicas de comunicación UVigo) de la Unidad de Cultura Científica de la Universidade de Vigo.
