We are thrilled to announce an author training session jointly hosted by MDPI and Rangsit University. This collaborative initiative stems from the shared enthusiasm of MDPI and Rangsit University for academic research and paper publication. The author training session is designed to enlighten students about MDPI's paper publication process, refine their English paper writing proficiency, enable them to proficiently address reviewer comments, and help them gain an understanding of the applications of artificial intelligence in publishing. Additionally, we aspire to bridge the information disparity between academia and the professional domain of open access publishing and assist our audience in continuously learning and adapting within the constantly evolving landscape of higher education and the publishing industry.
