MDPI Spain Author Training Session in June

In June, MDPI Spain, in collaboration with Prof. Dr. Eduard Llobet and Prof. Dr. Josep Ferre-Borrull, held an author training session endorsing an external event.

The Graduate Students Meeting on Electronics Engineering event was hosted by the Department of Electronic, Electrical, and Automatic Control Engineering of the Universitat Rovira i Virgili (URV) on 27 and 28 June 2024. It consisted of two days of plenary talks given by invited prestigious researchers about selected topics related to electronic engineering, short talks given by last year’s doctoral students presenting their up-to-date research results, and a poster session where master and Ph.D. students in this field presented their work. MDPI Spain contributed an author training session comprising valuable insights about MDPI, open access publishing, and publications ethics.

Editorial Director Rocky Zhang gave a presentation called “MDPI Insights, Sensors’ Introduction and the Editorial Process”. In her presentation, she delved into MDPI’s philosophy and mission, MDPI’s editorial process, and Sensors journal-related insights.

Journal Relations Specialist Vesna Marinkovic gave a presentation titled “Open Access and Publications Ethics”. In her presentation, she discussed the significance of Open Access Publishing in Europe and addressed ethical issues such as plagiarism, copyright infringement, data fabrication, and image manipulation.

MDPI is grateful to all the attendees for attending the event. Special thanks are offered to Eduard Llobet and Josep Ferre-Borrull for inviting us to take part in the Graduate Students Meeting on Electronics Engineering.
